You can attribute this to the clean air act put in by good ol' Bush,it
allows pollution swapping wher the big "fat cats " can pollute if they
crush the equal amount of cars.These "energy credits" are worth I'm to
understand up to $10,000 This should be stopped if WE have to cut back
so should they! What we have to worry about next is this UN treaty
coming up it looks really dangerous and could have an impact on how we
are allowed to drive our MGs(lbc content).A more fair way to treat
pollution would be perhaps a yearly allowance If you drive your MG (lbc
content again)3000 miles a year it may not put out as much pollution as
someone commuting 20,000 in a new car.It will be a sad day when the
only classics you see are in a museum or trailered to a meet behind your
electric 0 pollution van and the only way you can hear the sweet exhaust
is a tape deck under the hood!As for a list living or dying this list
seems to be doing quite well and if there are a lot of replies to a off
topic post it means the people ARE interested.As for replying only to
someone it is more interesting to see the reaction of a lot of people.
I apologize to any Canadians I may have offender I was just pulling
Trev's chain cause He's soooo easy!
