Mr. Chairman, I'm sorry. Could I respond to that?
That was the kind of response that was given in the early days of environmentalists. It was an uphill struggle to bring awareness to the fact that the unseen impact of various activities is real.
I'm not an environmentalist, and I'm not here to preach environmental causes, but I have what I call my paint-can theory of the environment. I wanted to throw out some paint cans this weekend. I took them out of the basement and put them in the garbage. My wife said that I couldn't do that and I had to take them to a special place.
