Bush fucks with the EPA - AGAIN!
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/03/13/AR2008031304175.html?nav=rss_email/componentsGeorge Bush once again overstepped his authority by ordering the EPA to change its regulations regarding limits on ozone emissions, even though the Clean Air Act clearly sets that authority in the hands of the EPA and its scientific advisors.
This is a step beyond his decision a couple of months to influence the Administrator of the EPA to reject California's waiver request to increase fuel efficiency standards, even though the agency could come up with no scientific or legal reasons to reject the waiver.

You know what they should do to cut 0zone emissions? Outlaw those stupid "ionic" air cleaners that dump out ozone but don't do squat for the air. Every nutty woman I know who blames all her problems on "allergies" (and not the fact that they keep picking abusive men and she eats too much) has one in her office.

But they make it smell like rain!
My ex bought a couple of those. The real expensive Sharper Image ones that don't even have a fan. I made her read how bullshit they were on a few websites and then send them back. That might be why Sharper Image went bankrupt.

Here's the story again, in a nutshell:
1. Consumer Reports ran a story that the Sharper Image air cleaner was "ineffective"
2. Sharper Image sued consumer reports. They lost the case!
3. Then Consumer Reports ran a followup: Not only is it ineffective, but the ozone it produces is HARMFUL!
4. Sharper Image goes bankrupt
Here's a more detailed summary, with references:

Does your ex-Wife blame all her problems on allergies? I don't know why any sane woman would have left you.
