Didn't Andy Beyer tell us in one of his early books, he uses
Jack Daniels while he does his research?

Yeah, that's a little bit rough for me though. Never could take the hard stuff too well.

Sorry this wound up in the wrong forum. Must have done too much research.

Here is a great article about junk science -- the kind of garbage the tree huggers and blubber lovers love.

boxcar,

Forget about that. You should worry about this instead:

Thanks for the heads up, Rick. Will run out tomorrow to buy more respirators, masks, cylinders of oxygen, etc. to prepare for the advent of Zee Haze over America.

I loved the part of the article that just glibly stated (without any supporting argumentation at all) that at least 80% of the problem is traceable to us wascally humans.

I think all we gotta do is find a way to disperse the nasty Asian Brown Cloud. Perhaps setting a small nuke off in the middle of it would do the trick? If nothing else, it would kill off a bunch of those earth-destroying humans down below.

boxcar,

Well I don't have any trouble believing that humans are mostly to blame for it, but the point to me is that no matter what we do here to reduce pollution we're still going to be affected by what happens elsewhere. I thought we learned that when Chernobyl happened, but maybe not. These days people are complaining about secondhand smoke and dying from jogging in the smog. And they're worried about living next to a nuclear power plant but not worried about shipping radioactive waste all over the country.
