But it's MSN that picked it up and ran with it. That is why I said it's typical. They do this all the time and they are not the only one. There are more editorials in the "news" today, than factual news. Edward R. Murrow is turning in his grave.

do these so called "Experts" realize that we breath this in every day. Every went to Africa or country's like that or a old car show, then you breathed in lead, carbon monoxide, CO2, and a bunch of other crap thats more toxic than cigar smoke.

Don't pay attention to anything PMS NBC says or does, never heard of Parade Magazine. I'm just not cool.

I think Parade Magazine is the little rag that comes with the Sunday papers.

I don't know how cool you've got to be to read the Sunday paper?
