      And they are not REALLY all that old for Western PA workers housing. These being built between 1913-25. My house (IN Pittsburgh) was built in 1873!

    This guy cannot read cursive. My son-just 40-can't either. Why? Because it's not taught in all schools anymore. Too bad.

    Love these houses! They are huge. Great history even if fairly recently occupied. Too bad about the
    E Coli contamination! Would have been a peaceful place to live. The mileage to the current Grocery store might have been mentioned. Great video!

    I go past there everyday and used to live in Worthington. I've explored those mines across the road extensively as well. I had a buddy that lived in Yellow Dog I fish Buffalo Creek all Pf Trout Season. Last time I actually drove through their was when my buddy lived there. There are mine portals behind the hunting club that you can go into also off mushroom farm road at the end of the bridge are a few old mine portals you can go explore. Even back in the mid 2000s there were a few abandoned houses in there. Who do you go see or talk to about walking up in there? As I never thought about walking in there with the gates. I haul limestone from Worthington Quarry and the New Bison underground limestone mine right next to the Mushroom Mine. I drive Mushroom farm road anywhere from 4 times a day to 17 times a day to the Armstrong Cement Plant in West Winfield at the end of Mushroom farm road. If you like to explore old mines I'd suggest going to what we call 40 foot there are dozens of old mine portals you can go into that go for miles. Some of them even go into the old Mushroom farm mines. The Mushroom Mine is not as big as it once used to be at one time it was the largest. Good video sir on of the best so far I've seen on Yellow Dog. The mining history in this area and to Bradys Bend is fascinating.

    both the wife and I write and read cursive and my grandchildren do, cursive used in the UK?
    Cursive writing is still widely taught in Western Europe. Spain, Italy, Portugal, and France have held onto the tradition. And in the UK, joined-up handwriting is still taught in English classrooms.

      Not being rude, but are they really not teaching cursive in schools anymore? Kids can't read cursive?

      Everything they read is on their phone. Being able to read and write cursive has no value in a capitalist society.

      Every house built before 1978 has lead paint. I don't think these people are gonna eat the paint chips like Doritos.

    I honestly prefer your crime documentaries to these. The research and investigation on the former is so great that the others usually turn out to be not as half exciting. Just saying.

    You put some live footage, slowly cross fading to pictures that is not relevant from the live footage. We assume it should be the same places but I look closely and they are not. Maybe the letter boxes one is good but you take it from totaly different angle. After the letters boxes one, it's all not relevant. Just some random images. Editing is more than V.O. and random images if you want it to be "documentary".

    • @porcupinecone7188
      @porcupinecone7188 4 дня назад +6

      We are shown random discarded pieces of these peoples' lives. There need not be continuity in the cross faded content. The casting into disarray of Yellow Dog by fundamental inviability of the town without an industry or benefactor - in a way the discontinuous editing is congruous with the town's fate. Let the statement be.
