In my view, the air's clean enough. Most of the time. And that we've long

I'm guessing you haven't spent much time in China lately.

Oh, I'm sorry, my bad: they don't count. They're not really people, just a
bunch of yellow peons who are supposed to make all our crap for us. Who
cares about their air?


Apparently, they care about their air more than we do about ours. The
cumulative effect of many "clean" facilities may outweigh what we produce
with fewer "dirty" ones, but at least it's a step in the right direction.
