New Re: diesel can be very low emission, but not in the US
In the late 80's, a law was passed that would have diesel trucks be subject to emmission controls, just like cars, by the year 1995.

Guess what happend to that law?

Can you say "industry lobbyists"? I knew you could....

New When Ronny became President . .
. . one of his first acts was to cancel all research into diesel particulate (it was coming up with inconvenient results).

California has recently reinstated requirements for reduction of diesel particulate. This will probably spread to other states, especially since so much trucking passes through California.

New Thanks, Andrew
Thought it was a Repo move, but couldn't remember (insert getting old epithet here), and couldn't prove it. I didn't want to get into a flame war with the Beepster w/o a sufficient amount of napalm.

New No prob...
...just try and remember I'm >right< (not as in correct) and not necessarily repo.

And since I am quickly becoming the only one here with that tendency thats willing to poke around in the politics forum...I feel obligated to play the game...after all...its fun.
