Was this the site you were talking about?

http://gulfcoast.airnowtech.org/

This is an even better site:

http://www.epa.gov/bpspill/air.html

Could you explain what it is in the data that is scary?

Also the YouTube link didn't work.

What active volcano?

"People on the side of The People always ended up disappointed, in any case. They found that The People tended not to be grateful or appreciative or forward-thinking or obedient. The People tended to be small-minded and conservative and not very clever and were even distrustful of cleverness. And so, the children of the revolution were faced with the age-old problem: it wasn’t that you had the wrong kind of government, which was obvious, but that you had the wrong kind of people. As soon as you saw people as things to be measured, they didn’t measure up." (Terry Pratchett)
