	I saw this subject discussed on the local NBC 6:00 news a
week back. The scientist at NASA said that for the average size house
(about 1300 sq ft) you would need 10 to 15 plants. This is the guy
who did the research. I figure he knows his stuff. Maybe the
back-to-nature, blah, blah groups own some houseplant nurseries? :-)
	I know my apartment is free of harmful gases. I think I have
about 50 plants in my one bedroom apartment. They're slowly taking
over. Some morning I'm going to find my husband strangled by a pothos
or something.
