Bruce KingGrowing up in New Mexico, we had a long-serving Governor named Bruce King. He was a crafty, good-ol'-boy cowboy known for slipping obfuscations, evasions and policy changes into rapid fire, paragraph-long, punctuation-less sentences. In one of his re-election campaigns he showed up at the University, where his lack of environmental awareness made him rather unpopular. I resolved to follow one of his sentences. It required intense concentration.
The gist of what King said was that, contrary to his critics, he did indeed care about air quality, because his ranch was located as far from the crest of the nearby mountain as the University was, just on the opposite side.
