The biggest problem in air pollution control these days is the growing number of illegally modified autos. The long term effects of high concentrations of the pollutants autos produce (and which are significantly reduced in a properly adjusted car with a converter) are known and were behind the Clean Air Act which led to the converters in the first place. If there was some other atmosphere people who don't concern themselves with the air they breath could polute I would have no objection to them polluting it and living there, however.... -- Gary Wasserman ...harpo!inmet!grw ...hplabs!sri-unix!cca!ima!inmet!grw ...yale-comix!ima!inmet!grw
