Every breath you take...

No, I am not thinking of the 80's hit song by Sting and the Police, but the latest report on air quality from the Environmental Protection Agency. Among the counties that fail to meet the new standards, surprisingly to me, is Smith County, Texas. And Collin and Denton Counties. Also Fairfield County in Connecticut -- that's Danbury, folks. Looks like you people in the Panhandle can breathe easy -- as can I here in Sauk County, Wisconsin.

One irony for Wisconsinites, though, is that Door County, one of the prime getaway spots where urban dwellers head for weekends of natural beauty with beaches and islands and parks and hiking and biking, is on the bad air quality list, too.
