But cars in general corrode and "return to the earth", no?   :D

Not long ago, Ontario had an "Emissions Test" that every  
vehicle had to pass every 2 yrs.  I think it was in force for  
about 8 yrs, and then it was scrapped. The system penalized old  
cars (for getting old), and penalized new cars (for passing a  
needless test plus a fee for the test!)
