Quote Of The Day
"The American Petroleum Institute filed suit against the E.P.A. (and) charged that the agency was suppressing a scientific study for fear it might be misinterpreted .... The suppressed study reveals that 80% of air pollution comes not from chimneys and auto exhaust pipes, but from plants and trees."
(Ronald Reagan)
