  1. I looked it over and yes clean air would be nice. Remember to put in links for readers to follow. I try and ride the bus as often as I can, especially since it is covered as a free service from the tution fees at school.

  2. Randy,
    Short and Sweet,
    There definitely has to be some sort of evolution as to the fuels we use. Our country is capable of finding a better way to use our resources and therefore improving our air quality.

  3. Randy-

    I like this a lot. it seems that there is always a healthier way to do things, but in this day in age... the healthier is more expensive. Hopefully we can find resources that suit us and that is always environmentally freindly.
