Shoot, I think Fresno city and county should join forces and start a "Drive more Prius'" campaing in SF. Their smog does blow down here a little bit.
I remember the 70s' guite well and the 50's and 60's as well and the advent of smog equipment. Yep today's cars are cleaner and far cleaner when the reformulated gas was instituted. However it is really not needed now, but ... well it makes the environmental activists feel good and makes money for the oil companies so who cares if the people pay more than necessary and get worse mileage and potentially pollute more than they would per gallon with the 49 State blend.

So you responded to my post rather than responding to the actual post of Nullgeo's that had said photo? You're either confused or:

We have relatively less bad air days now in Fresno than we had in previous decades yet they still exist.

Relative plus to TN for cleaner air I suppose.

Aah, maybe I did hit "reply" on the wrong thread.

However, now that you have posted a photo of yourself I will try to recognize the difference between you and Null.
