Do you work for a diesel engine manufacturer?
Julian, I'd have a lot more time for you if you laid off the passive aggressive bit. You have a way of expressing your opinions in such a way that invites argument rather than discussion, which may or may not be your character, but it's hard work joining in with you when the posts are so full of angst and suppressed emotion, chum.
Life is too short for arguing, and I like this forum for the many and varied viewpoints whether I agree with them or not. Forums are not about being 'right' or 'better', but for accepting others way of thinking without getting punchy.
We all go off on one at various times, but TM's worth more as most people know each other. Long may this be the case, too.
I don't understand what you mean by 'passive aggressive'.
Not sure I've ever seen a reply to a post so full of aggression…..
Sorry if it's caused offence, that wasn't the intent.
If my posts cause you or others a problem I'll restrict myself to viewing from now on.
I just wondered if you had a deeper understanding of the subject than I do and were able to fill in the blanks left by my opener.
It seemed from your reply to my original post, that by quoting euro 6 you were 'in the know'. It also seemed that you were expressing a degree of anger at my original post and in your opinion not only should I not have posted, but Diesel engines weren't polluters.
Surely the existence of Euro 6 acknowledges the problem exists and is trying to set a higher standard.
I'm not a boffin, expert or eco mentalist. My opinion is that it's probably too little to late.
Chum.
