Who started the Pollution Revolution anyway?

Even back in the old West when the North American area was untamed and occupied by the American Indian, the one method commonly used to communicate by air was THE SMOKE SIGNAL. You can see smoke for miles especially on the open prairie. Living in the central plains also called Tornado Alley you can look to the west off interstate 287 for many miles of flat and seemingly desolate land when traveling north west towards Amarillo, TX. from Dallas-Ft.Worth. Then came the railroad train, the great iron horse, or locomotive. My grandfather was a railroad engineer who designed trains and ran a train yard. If you lived in areas where the great railroad runs through your town you can see the trail of smoke coming out of the train's coal or steam engine right in the very front of the rest of the train's cars linked together sometimes for miles, and at the very end is the little red caboose. This was the way things were done back at the time before the motor car. The dawn of the industrial age was about ... late 1700's to early 1800's in Western Europe before it's beginnings in The United States.
