If a tree emits polution, it is not polution.

If a cow farts, it is polution, because people eat meat. Especially males.

If you don't eat meat, you can grow trees, and feel good. The polution, in this case, is good.

Smog is good, as long as it is from nature.

Did I get it right?

It's getting confusing isn't it. I am still trying to figure out if salt is good or bad for you this week.

Depends on what you mean by "this area".

You're looking at averages; it's in real life, where you get years with plenty of rain throughout (like this year) and years where the ground is so dry that crevices open up down to the 'white rock'; it those latter years that 'kill trees' that I'm talking about.

There is also a N-S dividing line between Dallas and Ft Worth from which the 'average' rafinfall picks up dramamatically - this is owed to the 'path' Gulf moisture makes in it's trip northward ..

OK WHAT? lets think logically shall we. first your wrong on two points. number one: TREES DO NOT CAUSE POLLUTION!! they may cause chemicals to be released BUT SO DO WE, the human body secretes chemicals in our sweat, but its produced naturally, therefore ITS NATURAL, NOT POLLUTION. now it is true that plants (in general) can hold pollution, but thats only if it hits them from stuff like smog, and because of that they release it slowly (even then its filtered through the veins of the tree, making it more resillient to said pollution in the future, and lessening the harmful gasses that are released. number two: REGAN WAS NOT CORRECT, Regan was either a corrupt moron, that either had friends in, or was paid off by, the logging industry; or, he was a gullible moron; or finally, he was just a friggin moron. oh, and by the way, this isnt coming from an "eco-nut" as you so aptly put it, this is coming from someone who doesnt give a rats a*s about nature, or the state of the rain forests, this is just coming from a semi-intelligent person who doesnt like to see people say stupid stuff
