[Spridgets] pollution control equipment

[Jim Johnson]

I wish I could blame this type of thing on bureaucrats alone but in truth
most of the blame belongs on the average car owner for not getting engaged
with their government. Until the public takes the government and the carious
bureaucracies to task for their ignorance, they will keep doing stupid
things. If people don't get off their duff and contest what their government
does, they deserve what they get.

Cheers!!
Jim
