That'd be awesome because we need more helium anyways. --- ~A little nonsense, now and then, is relished by the wisest men ~ TWSSted since~ 3/27/12 https://i.imgur.com/zlaENmx.png <cite>Trigg3rH4ppy posted [p:897723800] in MIT to att...

Scrubbers just make it cleaner than it was but they still produce a lot of pollution. It's no coincidence that the most polluted area of Pennsylvania is centered between 3 coal fired plants that are all "clean" and everyone around there gets cancer --- ~A little nonsense, now and then, is relished by the wisest men ~ TWSSted since~ 3/27/12 https://i.imgur.com/zlaENmx.png <cite>Trigg3rH4ppy posted [p:897723863] in MIT to att...
