[AT] OT: intersting discussion about idiling a cold car

[Ronald L. Cook]

There is such a law in Sioux City, Iowa, and I think it applies to 
vehicles idling unattended on private property as well as public.  Not 
sure about the State of Iowa, however.  It was mentioned on the local 
news just a few days ago.  Someone was issued a citation.  I have my own 
not very high opinion of the officer that issued the citation.
