The point of the research was about pollution Oh of course. I'm just saying that in the face of much more pressing long-term pollution issues, short-term stuff like smog doesn't really deserve much attention. For instance there are people who think that catalytic converters in cars were a step backwards, they don't do a thing for the long term issue, global warming, but allow us to easilly have far more cars on the road by fixing a short term issue, smog. -- http://petertodd.ca -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
