Windows fogging up

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by Brian Doennebrink, Jan 28, 2004.

  1. Thanks for the idea. I've never changed them. One of the vehicles is old
    enough for its filter to probably need changing. Someone else in one of the
    groups suggested those items one puts on the top angled part of the front
    windows, which allows one to slightly open the window without the rain
    getting in (and I've always wondered what those were for...)

    Interesting perspective, Curly. 17% of Californians smoke. Smoking is
    done predominantly by people on the lower end of the socioeconomic
    scale. Then, in California, what proportion of buyers of *new* cars
    smoke? If new cars came without ashtrays, how many people would care?
    So one should think second hand smoke from rats is less harmful than
    from people? Good to know when selecting friends.

  6. =====================

    Brian,

    I thought those things were invented by a smoker who thought their car
    would still smell 'showroom clean' if they could just vent all that
    smoke out the window :-(

    Turns out the human lung isn't nearly as efficient a filter as some
    think. Laboratory rats' lungs make better filters, but when the
    scientists cut them out, the rats always die. :-(

    Randolph,

    I can see where this is leading, but I will not allow myself to be drawn
    into a 'Lawyer Joke' session ! You can choose your friends, but I'm
    stuck with my relatives. :-(

  18. There is tangible evidence for the first - none for the second. Don' worry
    'bout it though - with most car accidents, at least one victim is a Darwin
    Award winner... and a potential gene pool polluter.:)
