I have often stated that the solution to much stack pollution involves
"one" federal regulation: Limit stack-size to a very short height. This
will put the pollutants on the ground locally, and the states can figure
out what THEY want to do. A factory will be much more "incented" to fix 
a problem they have to breathe.  Let the acid rain (if it really exists)
fall in Chicago.

I apologize for the lack of VW content.
