BUSH ADMINISTRATION LIED TO NEW YORKERS IN WAKE OF 911

[The One and Only...]

I'm not saying it's not an issue: all I'm saying is that you are pumping it up to be bigger than what it actually is. I can see reasoning in both points. While you are thinking "the air is harmful!", I'm thinking "let's see, if they didn't have enough emergency gas masks for everyone, then fights might ensue in an attempt to get some..."

All I'm asking is for a reference that compares the level of harm/health effects in breathing the air. I don't doubt that it's worse for you than normal; but I somewhat doubt that it is quite as bad as you are hyping it up to be. I just can't quite fathom the Bush administration being that stupid if it was.
