No. And we are not California. If the laws of California appeal to anyone, I think that is where they should live. I came to Florida because I like Florida, the people, the laws, the amenities, etc. I didn't go to California because I don't like their laws, a lot of their people, and more.

No my friend told me anything battery operated is a communist plot to take our freedom.

The back of your house is so close to the back of another home that they are "kissing"

Maybe California is following your lead? Seems like you despise the state but agree with their recognition that mower/trimmers etc are a problem. Even California has not gone to catalytic converters, so you're ahead of them in the clean air department.

Don't want the government telling me what to do or use....we've had enough !

The air in our country is much better than it was 70 years ago. I remember when auto pollution and coal burning furnaces and water heaters made the air so dense you could hardly see through it during the winter months. Our air is much better now, regardless of what the tree huggers suggest. I have no problem with subtle changes, but I see no reason for radical and costly changes based on someone's whim. Some folks have way too much time on their hands. I always marveled at how some folks could spend so much time demonstrating when others had to budget their time between working a job and home maintenance. But, I digress.

And that is how you get patios!

those who do their own lawn maint. MAY wish to use batt pwr'd. commercial maintainers can't

I would suggest that the reason why our air now is not so dense is because the tree huggers began the battle 70 years ago. You admit that you now benefit from decades of activism which was opposed by coal and power companies and steel and more. They said that the pollution controls were too costly and radical and the tree huggers had too much time on their hands. Same for our fouled water, our use of DDT etc. I am so proud of those who fought for cleaner air, water, food, highways, etc.

All that just got moved out of the country and still polluting. So, as long as it not in our backyard it’s big benefit right? Well long as you’re not up wind from Mexico and not in jet stream of China.

There still slow loud obnoxious turd of motorcycle world.

Did you know that goats pollute more than flying a Boeing jet from NYC to Singapore!
