I agree. And that shows 2 subjective reports from 2 individuals and 2 temperature measurement reports from 2 different cities. Smart people need to be 1st aware of a problem and next DO something about the problem. When you see the loud IC engine golf cars driving by WITHOUT catalytic converters - just be aware that they are part of the problem. When you see a hybrid car or truck drive by or a quiet E-vehicle - just be aware that the drivers of those vehicles are doing THEIR part to alleviate the problem.
........They also have the advantage that they go to the gas station less and thus save their important TIME.
