"When you are washing oil, grease or soot off of you, are you using soap? If yes, the purpose of the surfactants in your soap surround and cling to the oil, grease and soot in order to remove it from your body. Those surfactants don't uncling. So if they are a part of the recirculated water, the oil, grease and soot won't reattach to your body. It is basic chemistry. "

How is plooting along at 30 mph with a dog's head hanging out the window different? Dinky is not being tied to the bumper and going 60 in 1930. I'm guessing a lot of dogs could run faster than cars in the 30s."
