Does it count as "well done" if it's devoted to dishonestly spreading FUD, though?
I assume that the point of the website is to imply that coal-burning power plants cause asthma. Is there any evidence for this whatsoever? Googling for coal and asthma, most of the hits I get seem to be related to this very hoax, and the fact that asthma rates have climbed significantly over the last century while coal-burning has got less prevalent, cleaner and much further outside major cities implies that it really ain't.
How is this any better than a website devoted to, say, spreading the meme that free software causes communism?
