And they say our engines are worse for NO emmissions.  Good thing they don't leave a blue mark.  Those bricks would be black and blue.

Crazy eh?

Even belching blackness, they are still cleaner. Diesel particulate is much less harmful to the atmosphere and ozone.

most of the particulate matter (black smoke you can see) just falls to the ground anyways.. its the NOx thats bad..

but yes, even while pouring coals, our cars are cleaner than all those silver and powder blue Toyota Prius's...
