How about also that silver stuff/particles they spray into the L.A. atmosphere? it's creepy to watch it spread across the sky. Is that what you meant?

I hate the sound of leaf blowers and especially that smell it gives off! We had these gardners that used electric ones for awhile then they went back to the gas ones. What up on that? Dorks! And don't get me started on the chem trails in the sky we have everyday in LA!

>Re: leaf blowers. They are so noisy, too. Whenever a gardener comes by to clear the leaves, I feel like Tim Robbins on "Noise" (of course, same goes for car alarms). I do not understand why blowers are not replaced with other devices that vacuum them. Leaves could be then used in compost.

>Heh...garbage (and Eurokids). Berlusconi's "bella figura" to clean up cities like Naples from garbage, to then say that the problem was solved is kinda bogus. It was like hiding dust under a carpet. As long as mafia controls the whole garbage business, more and more Italians will have new sources of pollution in water and soil. Illegal dumping can be found even in the North. If you watch "Gomorra" you'll get nauseated. I was, because I think of how beautiful my country of origin is, and how it is strangled by crime, corruption and pollution in many areas--still, and forever will be, I fear.
