I think you need to redo the poll and have an "undecided" choice. I don't have time to thoroughly analyze the pros and cons. I'm not going to venture a guess if I can't make time to weigh the positive aspects against the negative aspects.

Don't you think you should learn more about them? After all, you're paying for them.
Yes, I think a restaurant should always be clean.
Nassa research developed a system to prevent the food poisoning of astronauts.
It's called HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point). This system was introduced into the state of Victoria about 5 years ago.
This means that people working in the food industry have training, to help prevent food contamination.
In British Columbia it's called "Food Safe". It is mandatory to take a short course and pass in order to handle food commercially. This includes all food handlers including waiters or waitresses. A course called "Serving It Right" is mandatory for all persons handling alcoholic beverages. Both courses are required for waiters and waitresses serving liquor and food.
This is about fuel economy in cars, I thought.
Ooo ! have I stuffed up ?
Sorry...communication brakedown !
I wondered how long it would be before someone actually knew about this. I was just curious how many were familiar with them and the implications of them. CAFE stands for "Corporate Average Fuel Economy"
The problem is by making cars "fuel efficient" they add THOUSANDS of $$$ to the price. Sometimes maybe simple is just better? Now I hear thieves are stealing catalytic converters for the platinum in them.
Not to mention that to make the cars more fuel efficient they make them lighter. In making them lighter they make them more dangerous. Thousands of people are dead because their cars were more fuel efficient.
