>> Artic Pollution 

    First if all, it seems someone at NPR can't spell. ANWR has been in the 
news so often in the last few years that they should know it's arCtic, not 
artic. I wonder who their spellchecker is - Dan Quayle?
    Second, this seems awfully fishy if you ask me. Dare I say that the 
story/concept is full of sh**?? This reminds me of when the Reagan 
administration claimed that cows passing gas were a (if not the) major source 
of pollution in this country (or was it out west?) - all that methane, you 
know. This is yet another attempt by FODI (Friend's o' Dubyuh, Incorporated) to 
try and convince people drilling in ANWR won't be so bad.

 Research: Bird Droppings Major Source of Artic Pollution 
 by John Nielsen 
All Things Considered, July 17, 2005 · Seabird droppings -- not particles 
carried by the winds -- are the major source of pollutants in some parts of the 
Arctic. This discovery could lead to a better understanding of global pollution 
patterns.
