Yes.....good point.  And it probably never gets cold in his huge, energy sucking mansion either. 

I should just let this go but I'm going to respond anyway.

A. You don't measure the nitrogen in the gulf and try to sort out its origin.  You measure it in each state before it gets to the gulf.   It's a simple concept and I've pointed it out before but you are too obstinate or, dare I say it, stupid to understand it.

B.  You could ignore the environmentalists and go back to Los Angeles in the '50's when people were routinely dying from the smog.   And back to Pittsburgh in the '40's when people were also dying from the soot and other pollutants.   And we could just dismiss it as a natural phenomena when the Cuyahoga river in Cleveland catches of fire.   And a hundred more examples.   But I wouldn't want to.

Yeah you guys.  They measure it in the state where it originates.  I've seen 'em, out there with Mobay.  They carry slide rules and little clipboards, and they put water in test tubes and carry back to some super secret lab.  Saw two of 'em just last night out at Mad Creek, and another one over near the river.  The farmer down the road says they're constantly trampin' down his corn getting samples.  Why, there must be thousands of 'em to measure the whole state. Mobay's just the driver, but he truly believes it's all legit.   99 Counties....that's a lot of test tubes, eh?

You wonder where Mobay gets some of  his material?   He gets it from guys like who make it up.   But they are infinitesimally better at it.

I told you there were statistics involved.   But that seems to be a foreign concept to some of you.
