 Damn, Steve....your right.  You made it so clear!  Let's ban ALL Diesels
engines!!  OTR and local delivery trucks, mass transit buses and trains, tug
boats, passenger/freight ships, metro utility power generators, hospital
emergency power generators, correctional facility emergency security power,
EMT vehicles, fire engines, construction equipment...... No noxious exhaust
to smell!  Ah, the California air would be so clean.

Imagine, no commercial transit movement, no urban development and no
electricity!

Steve, now really, next time your stuck in traffic behind an old Diesel bus,
try rolling up your windows!
