Why the Sky Is Blue Says UW Professor
Professor J R Inger Boll of the University of Wisconsin explains that sky blue results from fine atmospheric dust scattering light. He notes higher altitudes show deeper blue, horizons appear whitish, and sunsets redden as light loses blue through thicker air. He cites Krakatoa eruptions as examples of dust increasing sunset brilliance.

The Journal of the American Medical Association urges stronger conscience and humane policy to ensure a safe milk supply.
