The ammonia fumes? No - but the idiocy of a national train wreck infuriates me. I think you can say that the science exists - I do not think you can say the technolgy exists. The link below illustrates some of the differences between science and technology. diffen.com By any serious interpretation the lack of technology makes the idiocy of Waxman and company obvious to the most passionate of the scare mongers. If it makes the argument more acceptable we could add the word commercial. Would you object to the statement that "no commercial technology exists"? If we can agree on that we must agree that the stated reduction goals are plain lunacy. We deserve numbers and not fear like what was on NBC tonight. Whatever fancy words one choses - an engineering company cannot go out and design a coal fired power plant with CO2 capture and sequestration with predictable performance or economics. Ergo - the technology does not exist. Frankly, I think such a facility would be a perpetual entropy machine with a net energy yield approaching the ridiculous. Bob
