*grin* I could not help laughing at this (sorry, Michele, please - this
is NOT personal) - just that recently I have heard a few people say that
technology will provide the answer to everything - I of course, don't
agree...

what would be used as a foaming agent? another ozone depleting
substance? or one that will only be found to be lethal in 10 years
time?  this is key to the problem - we willy nilly use chemicals etc to
provide "solutions" to problems, but there is no protocol for decent,
honest scientific research over a reasonably long term to find out what
it actually does....
