Uh, Uncle Frank, thanks for that example. But were you being sarcastic? Because you really don't help Microsoft's case by pointing out that you have to look to somebody like the director of the Brookings Institute for Regulatory Studies to find a supporter of their laughable defense. I was curious, so I went to their web site. Some other equally revealing Brookings Institute positions are (1) Bush's people were on the right track in trying to roll back the new arsenic standards, (2) the EPA should lighten up about lead in the soil at Superfund sites, (3) pesticides in drinking water are not all that bad, you should try them. In my quick glance at recent abstracts I didn't find an article defending Exxon's oil spill, but I'm sure it's back there in the archives. These guys should be renamed the Corporate Whore Testimony-for-hire-under-the-guise-of-independent-research Organization. Dave
