Wonder if those who were first adopters of the new fangled clean air mode of transportation faced this...betcha they did...
Gasoline powered vehicles were the fix for air pollution of that day...piles of horse poop in the streets...smelling up the neighborhood/streets...piles of horse poop in the outskirts of most cities...that when dried...became yet another air pollutant when blown back into the city...horse poop dust clouds engulfed many cities and choked people out and about...that was considered and documented as a health hazard...of those days...
Gasoline was sold at local drug stores and hardware stores from the historical material read when a kid
Just because the distribution system isn't there yet...does it mean the technology isn't any good...
Also betcha a horse drawn buggy could out drag those first gasoline driven 'horseless' buggies...
History repeating itself...and those who either do not know of, or educated thereof are destined to repeat those historically based learning points...
