And I still love technology. Always and Forever.

Golly, those scientists. Always thinking up those wacky new ideas. You know, it's science.

From Slashdot:

With concerns over global warming and pollution control reaching an all-time high, an Italian company has developed an interesting solution. It is called TX Active: a concrete that literally breaks down pollutants in the air. The effects are significant: 'In large cities with persistent pollution problems caused by car emissions, smoke from heating systems, and industrial activities, both the company and outside experts estimate that covering 15% of all visible urban surfaces (painting the walls, repaving the roads) with products containing TX Active could abate pollution by up to 50%.'

Hey Mayor Dave, get on this.

Note: It is thunder-lightning-snowing here in WI. All at the same time. Great. Just great.
