piling on

yeah... piling on

states that ban diesel vehicles should instead be banning cigarettes if they really care about air quality...

seriously...

3 cigarettes lit sequentially in a 60 cubic meter garage created 10 times more air pollution than a 2.0L diesel idling in the same space...

10 times...

3 cigarettes...

THAT is some crazyness...

VT and Mass? Yall wanna make a difference? Get that Honda motor company to get us a diesel Element, a diesel Accord and THEN you'll see some improvement... seriously...

and furthermore - people are really odd
they would much prefer to be in traffic that was oderless and deadly- sit behind a diesel? They stink! But. Wait. It is far less toxic than gas emissions, even the new ones... but hey, lets not focus on that topic any more than we have to... no one is gonna buy that argument, dirty diesels are bad. grrrrrr

I just read somewhere that the air you breathe while riding a bike through heavy traffic is better than the air in a car. Are we surprised? I think not.

Woah, there are actually places banning diesel engines? Yikes. Certainly hasn't happened here in Portland. Biofuel is doing well here.

Geez, diesels don't even stink anymore. I don't get it.

Burn corn for gas...I wonder why nobody sees the problem with that.
