    The dust adsorbs(think that is right) the chemicals from the air.

    If it weren't so dangerous, this would be almost hilarious.

    Aussies have put up with these conditions for generations, just like the Mississippi suffers from flooding. Nothing new to report here, unless you're spouting Global Warming agenda.

    If you flip through the pictures...you'll note this one (above), is the most widely used one throughout ALL the news articles. The others show much less dust in the air, some even show the photographer has blatantly used filters on his camera. Making the photos appear more dramatic than they actually are.

    No doubt, it is bad. But why would a reporter go out of his way, to make it appear worse if he wasn't grinding an axe?

    It also says that it provides the oceans and rain forests with much needed nutrients. These people need to accept that the planet is going to regulate itself with little regard for our ideals.
