carbon residue (which is harmless) from tractor trailers.
Harmless??? Not true at all. Was an article in the LA TIMES couple of weeks ago about their effects

The largest single majority of left wing voters in the entire country is....... TEACHERS.

TELL ME that isn't scary.
You would not think so if YOU were a teacher and the education system in this country was being raped of its financial resources by the right wing extremists in the White House and former Congress!!!!!!!

WOW.....thats a lot of trash. It was honestly a little bit of an eye opener for us all to actually see what we wasted. The pool was heaping full of trash. We had it all cleared out after that. Now imagine then the entire neighborhood.... doing the same thing for 6 months longer. You'd have a heap after just 1 year that would fill 5 property lines in a giant mound of trash. PER YEAR. That kind of impact is substantial and so easily reduced. Yet I've watched a person in a hybrid car with a earth sticker on the back liter his cigarette STILL BURNING MIND U out the 91 freeway on my way to work. I thought to myself for a while on the drive to work about what an idiot I figured he was. Turned out to be a SHE but in any case.....a hypocritical moron just the same.

Ehh just a odd little bit of stories from my own experience.
Wow.....awesome experiment Greg!

True, there will always be idiots and hypocrites....

the black you see from diesel is primarily just carbon/ASH. Just like after you burn a fire.

I will say that it contains trace ammounts of some bad stuff such as carcinogens for example...but then again even burnt firewood does. I'll have to search for this article in the LA times (a very liberal paper) to be able to make a counter-argument on their points. I would be surprised to see anything other then what I already mentioned though. I always saw the black pooring out of diesels and wrote it off as "pollution" but after actually looking at WHY the produce it, it seemed much more mild. The soot im sure does go into the air and cause a TEMPORARY negative situation but it is one in which is quickly dissolved.

ok ok so I wasn't around in the 70's but I do read . Which I can barely do cause I went to public school after private school. I'm a victim!!!!

Rob, you can stop with the right-wing links.

If I had time, I could find a bunch of opposing links to rebut....

I'm sure thats what the teachers think...... but let me make this analogy.

Did the Germans not think they were doing something great?
