Karen, we disagree with certain things but never to this extent. Trust me on
this one. I took it upon myself to just do one test. Gosh.. I can imagine
how smarter and brighter and people with more education could do even more
to prove these associations between ill health and pollution .But anyway , I
have the filter from home in Philadelphia and not near industry by the
way.This is from three weeks of normal pollution, mostly in the end of
August when pollution was not warning levels but high moderate levels. you
are free to do your own test. If you saw it you might take a different
account if this isn't harmful. I am more admant now then anything in my life
ever besides telling people to not smoke. I am totally convinced we are
being poisoned and I beg for people with more power to do more now, not
twenty years from now but now. Its probably too late for me because after
seeing what an average furnace filter collected in this area, mulitiplied
over years does and will have done, you will or anyone objective will get a
better idea what is happening. Now one doesn't have to be a brain scientist
to then do the same thing for a clean environment. Truthfully Karen I didn't
have to make this test and I can't guaranteee that a cleaner environment
would make for a cleaner filter but I will say this. if the Avervage person
in this area is breathing this amount of pollution. there is no way in Hell
, they wouldn't be affected in the negative. This is way more then you might
be prepared to see  and accumulated over three weeks. I want to move more
then ever but it may be too late for me. I urge youKaren cause you seem
bright to see what dark particulates might do to you over time and what you
might have enjoyed if your body didn't have to deal with this. For the more
sensitive out there I can now see how this causes cancers and diseases and
lung problems and I now see its almost impossible to believe that objective
people can rationalize this as unimportant or uneffectual in causing
disease. Thats all I can say. Anyone from news media is free to see what
this filter has collected in this area. To do the tests to show what people
who live in clean areas have in the way of benefits or health compared to
those that don't should not be hard to prove. I now more then ever in my
life see it. Every day in this poison is not like smoking one cig  a day its
like smoking many if this filter is any indication and this test was not
done in warning level pollution either!!!
