Tonight, Thursday June 21st 2007 The CBS evening news was primarilly focused (I'de say 90% wise) on "Green Topics". Everything from higher MPG debate, to pointing out Lake Superior, the largest freshwater lake in the world...is terribly low (2.5 feet-16trillion gallons).

...They also made mention the EPA is considering lowering the permissable level of smog. They stated "In major urban areas the rate is about 90 PPB" and their proposal: Originally they wanted a reduction to 70-75PPB...after heated debate they revised it to 80-85PPB.

The lobbyists? Coal and car manufacturers... Time to muster our forces... before they come after wood burners...lol
