I think we've moved away from the shuttle topic, but ...... :)

The above quote is something I've been wondering for a while. I was going to
ask before I saw the above. It seems to me that we are crying about not enough
ozone in the upper atmosphere, but here in L.A. we are complaining about too
much ozone (smog) where we breathe. It's too bad we can't move the ozone
around.

(I was just wondering. I'm NOT trying to start any more wars here.)
