Freon was banned by increasing the tax on it and limiting its use

Freon isn't banned, DuPont's patent on R-19 expired and coincindentially the Gov't mandated a change to R134 for "environmental reasons".

Stioll ots and lots of freon out there, especially in larger chillers; R-19 was a consumer product. Nice try, though.
