Did they ever work? File with the IRS or SS? Were they ever included in a census report? Seriously I have never heard of anyone around here having a problem, and I know some folks in their 80s that were born at home.

Do nothing and the children in the future will be in jeapody. Same as our national dept getting completely out of control. Best we clean up our act. Jefferson said moons ago to the public.

Rationale. In addition to political, economic, and mechanical feasibility, one must consider the environmental consequences of choosing ethanol over gasoline. In par- ticular, the amount of air pollution released in the form of CO2 and other green house gases (GHGs) is a crucial point of interest. In order to model the difference in ethanol and gasoline emissions, it is necessary to calculate the final mass of GHGs (in the case where 10% of the gasoline energy supply has been replaced by ethanol) minus the ini- tial mass (before the 10% replacement was implemented). If the result is negative, the 10% ethanol scenario gives off fewer GHGs; if it is positive, it gives off more. Assumptions and calculations. Our model is based on the following assump- tions: 1.

BTW, nice job of hijacking the thread.
