Off topic but I have an opinion so it's fair game. My understanding of the ozone layer is that the ozone is made by the UV light putting energy into standard oxygen molecules. 3O(2) + energy = 2O(3).

Tire pressure, my favorite topic. When I had an 84 Cor**tte, I spent a lot of time learning about tires. This was one of the first mass produced cars to use really wide tires so there was a lot of di
