Thanks

Hey Tom,

want to say thanks for your mention of "acrolein". My (and others) environmental and health concers took a quick jump at this and have been looking for more info. Here is one of the latest that helps me breath with much less concern.

Quote:
An online resource I found stated that acrolein is indeed very toxic. But it also said that environmental exposure to it via auto exhaust is almost non-existent.

Why? Acrolein is supposedly highly reactive and does not survive long in the environment. Human exposure therefore is limitied.
