[HardDrive]

This kind of stuff makes good new stories, but up here cooler heads usually prevail. I love washing my car in the driveway, but I don't think there is anything wrong with brainstorming on ways to prevent run off. There is always going to be dirt/oil run off from the roads, but that doesn't mean its worthless to try and keep phosphorous out of the water system. In fact seeing this has inspired me. I'm going to see if I can find a more 'earth friendly' soap for washing the vehicles.

One thing is for sure, Carlson said. "We're not going to be car-washing bureaucrats run amok. We have higher priorities than that."

It is that kind of common sense attitude that makes it enjoyable to live in WA. Unlike the loons running Kalifornia.
