I wouldn't say they haven't the slightest interest. I think all
modern people agree that pollution is a problem. But Lutz dismisses
global warming, which -- assuming it is real -- is a far more serious
problem than pollution.
That is why I stated previously if Lutz & Co. continue to do what he
claims GM is planning on doing, I personally don't care what his
personal opinions might be. Perhaps the real question we should be
asking ourselves is: Will Lutz & Co. keep their word in spite of
what their true opinions might be. . . .
Agreed.
With that said, I suspect I'm in general agreement with many of the
opinions that have been expressed in this thread. But that's just my
opinion. ;-)
This reminds me a little of a recent hysterical column by Kinsley:

"McCain and the Times: the Real Questions
My apparent concern about the appearance of the possibility of the
appearance of a possible affair.
. . . I am not accusing the New York Times of screwing up again by
publishing an insufficiently sourced article, then defending itself
with a preposterous assertion that it wasn't trying to imply what it
obviously was trying to imply. I am merely reporting that some people
worry that other people might be concerned that the New York Times
has created the appearance of screwing up once again. . . ."
