Thanks for posting this. I find Centralia fascinating. It's crazy that it could have been "fixed" but $50,000 was considered too much money, yet now the government have spent over $35 million as of 1996 and it still hasn't been "fixed." According to Wikipedia, there were only 7 residents left in 2007. I wonder if they are still there or if they have left by now, too. Also, I found out that Jennifer Finney Boylan has written two fiction books set in Centralia. I may add those to my summer reading list.
