Engines=good
Farts=bad

Sounds like good science to me. It's at least as credible as anything Algore has come up with.

The enviro wackos are more worried about cow farts and horse sh*t than they are about the internal comnbustion engine. Controlling the former would be a herculean undertaking. But its not a sexy business, if you get my drift.

Too bad for PETA - a story like this would get them screaming in the halls about livestock causing global warming....I don't think they'll touch it - would tick off algore...

like I have frequently stated: replace every car in the city with a horse, and you have one smelly mess! the entoire downtown would become uninhabitable and a hazmat situation.

Then because many cars would be carrying more people than can ride a horse, you have to significantly increase the number of horses...

since many liberal elites live in the city, this is certainly worth an attempt.;-)

PETA still trying to determine if a worm feels pain when being put on a fish hook...and avoiding the question if it feels pain when the fish eats it!

Sometimes they do it directly. In the 90s Saab developed a very clean-burning engine. They drove it around London and found that the pollution at the tail pipe was less than at the air intake.

THis is what the enviros want. They want all but a few caretakers of mother earth DEAD. And guess who the caretakers will be.

No, I read it in a car magazine in the 90s. You'll know the car if you find the link because it had a bunch of test equipment attached to the hood and tailpipe.
