    is there a different micron size limit for air cleaner v cabin air? Do size quotes ona box indicate tru ability? What do folks think is needed for a real nose/throat/lung sufferer?

    Auto execs are coming clean evs arentworking.

    any new tech needs a transitionary period (before garnering lots of support - gov, consumer, voter). Even cars were like that. Expansion of 100 yr ol tech (non-whale oil) came in to assist. Refining advanced too. Roads, industry improvements... Some early cars were on Kero. Very few are kick...

    Oil filter disposal: what do you do?

    odd man out as usual (well, I C a few others). "Burn'n throw away" seems worse. As there is no 'away' for some secerete trash heaven or hell. Often it's burrial so comes right back on us. Burn puts that chit into the air we breath. Glad there's more'n more filter recycle places. It means choice...

    Oil filter disposal: what do you do?

    each plastic is pretty different. #1 & 2 (on bottom, in triangle) R pretty recyclable. The Amer Chem Soc ("K" St, W. DC pros) lobbied (for plastics industry) to get #3 - 7 on there. Stuff is much harder to recycle. Not many do it. These R poison when left out in the atmosphere to degrade...

    Ford layoffs

    "...Ford for giving people this option of working remotely while they execute on their plan of layoffs. ..." I'd say 'anything done in the dark' ("the sanitizing force of full sunshine") - not so good. Could these folk dismissed get some support/contact w/others @ the club they've just been...
