Permanently soporific ... but not for 20-30 years. Although, after watching them blow 'rock dust' composed of 4-5% silica mixed with lime all over the place without respiratory protection, I'm developing a theory about the reason for the uptick in aggressive CWP/Progressive Massive Fibrosis in the past 7-8 years. The new, bad pneumoconiosis makes its appearance in 7-10 years rather than 20-30.
Sorry, enough shop talk - I'll be putting everyone here to sleep.
