That's nice...When was the last time you had _your_ car smog checked?

My area in NC just had the smog checks become part of the yearly inspection
process. I am not sure if it is the whole state now, or what. It was just
the big city counties, such as the Raleigh-Durham area, and Charlotte.

The thing that puzzles me, is that you don't have to have cars older than
'96 (I think) inspected for smog.

Some cars older than that, with shot motors, are running around smoking like
a 10 pack-a-day chain smoker, making more pollution than 50 cars that are
being inspected.

Until that loophole is closed, or at least tightened, smog control for cars
makes little sense.
