I'm not breathing what the jets spew out. I am breathing the crap your car puts out though when I walk down the sidewalk. Your examples are pretty much BS. You're saying because other people do bad things, you can do bad things too.
1) You don't have 50 boats sitting at a light in rushhour traffic spewing exhaust.
2) In 2002-2003 20% of on the road motorcycles had cats. The number's expected to go over 50% by 2010. Basically motorcycles do have to meet emissions but, currently they aren't as strict as cars. They will be before too long. Same thing, you don't normally have 50 bikes in traffic.
Tests have shown you're polluting and not really getting significant horsepower out of it. That's just plain stupid. It's as stupid as putting a strut tower bar on a '2k or one of those hyper-grounding systems. It might be justified if you made significant power gains out of it. I will laugh when one of you posts here about the big fines you got for removing the cat.

Let me make a point......
1.) Airplanes dont have cat's and they burn thousands of pounds of JET BLACK FUEL all day 24/7 throughout the world
2.) Bikes dont have Cats
3.) Boats dont have Cats
4.) The very small population of s2ks that do not have cats, will not make a big difference in the enviorment compared to the beasts i mentioned above.
In the end, the enviorment state wont matter, eventually we are all gonna die.
That is all
