He bangs on about the "foreign" waxes as if the USA waxes are any different
and then stresses how his product is from American farmers and helps their
trade balance. Even if he is right about the 1255 tons ofwaxleft on
American mountains, that's a drop in the ocean compared to the jet and car
fuel skiers use to get there, let alone the fuel running the resorts etc.

So does that does that mean that little pollution is ok.

If you could buy wax made with products grown by European Farmers woud
that be better than Importing more oil from the Middle East, or
drilling more oil in the North Sea.

Also, even if the 2.81 million pounds is small compared to the jet and
car fuel, at least its a step in the right direction.

One more thing, I see your point about banging on foreign waxes. He
was trying to make the point about imported crude oil and petroleum. I
will give him a verbal lashing unlike anything a self serving American
has ever heard for offending you.
