I think if people are glued to the trains the trains should move as normal and if those stupid people get killed or injured bad luck. The commuters need to get to work and go home.

Coming from a technical/scientific background, the point I am trying to make is that, if I go outside my house I can measure the temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction etc. etc. all on international agreed and accepted standard measures. Why can't "pollution" be measured on an agreed scale ? I should be able to go outside with my pollutionometer and say "ah we are at 57.3 today - that's good". And that doesn't answer the second question, if you did have an agreed measure of pollution, how do you determine who the polluter is ??


  There's a thing called the Air Quality Index, Bob. It measures various types of pollution and there are indeed hand-held home monitors. Like these.
