a select few.The people who makes the dynos for smog 2 lobbied
Sacramento and are making millions of dollars on this!( at our
expense)Arco lobbied for the use of MTBE and is making millions.MTBE is
very toxic and is polluting the ground waters and there is talk of
shutting down all the lakes from powerboats because of this crap.It's
easy to sit in another state or country and think I'm whining but YOU
don't have to put up with it,and the people we elect are not responsive
and if we kick them out they won't be either.I hope to retire in a few
years and I will go somewhere that isn't as intrusive.As for
"elitism"Maybe so but what impact does a guy in a '80 lotus have?I
think certain cars should be exempt regardless of their age simply
because they aren't causing a problem.
Lets DEMAND a sane and fair approach to this!
