Hydrocarbons are a pretty minor component of the pollution that irritates us and makes us sick today. Reagan's comparison only considers one particular pollutant. What really hurts is such pollutants as sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide. These are produced by industry. There *is* a list of Reagan's mistakes published. It is called *There He Goes Again: Ronald Reagan's Reign of Error* and is published by (I'm not sure about the publisher) Pantheon Books. It's a paperback and should be in the humor (inappropriately) or politics sections of book- stores. The book details approximately 300 statements by Reagan and explains how the statements differ from the facts. -halden UUCP: {allegra, decvax, ihnp4, orstcs, ucbvax, zehntel, ogcvax, reed, uw-beaver, hplabs}!tektronix!teklabs!haldenf CSnet: haldenf@tek ARPAnet: haldenf.tek@rand-relay
