The environmentalist took the asbestos out of brake linings. Apparently
there was a health concern. I don't think they went far enough. If they
are going to screw up great brake linings, they ought just make cars
illegal. As if changing the material that brakes a zillion cars is going
to change the effect that the rest of the ka-zillion automoibiles are
having on the environment.
Stepping down...soap box open.......
