   The air pollution threat may be invisible, but it is real-we know it can   
   sicken, and we know it can kill," said Carolyn Wisniewski, Vice President   
   for the American Lung Association of Pennsylvania. Wisniewski estimated that   
   about 400,000 persons with chronic lung disease and nearly 900,000 people   
   with heart disease were at special risk from air pollution in the 5-county   
   Southeastern Pennsylvania area.   
   "A large study released this month in the New England Journal of Medicine   
   documented that children living in polluted areas have a five fold greater   
   risk of decreased lung function," said Dr. Joel Chinitz with Philadelphia   
   Physicians for Social Responsibility. "This impairment occurred independent   
   of asthma or smoking."

   the goal when communicating is to rationzlize existence with truth and   
   facts and what is right coupled with getting what we desire (which might not   
   always be what is right)   
   Facts are often hidden so rich control options   
   Sometimes feelings are not accurate and sometimes they are. Lets learn to do   
   better based on truth, honesty and facts and the desire to do good
