Acid Rain? Where?

Has anybody ever really experienced acid rain? I've only ever seen it on T.V. It makes me think of Captain Planet and the kind of pollution that would be necessary to create it. I imagine that in a city with a big, dirty factory, acid rain might be possible. But I don't recall hearing about it in the news.

I wonder how global warming would affect acid rain? The hotter it gets, the more water can be held as moisture in the hot, humid air. So then, the more other stuff that tags along with water can be held, too.

In science class, they say when you burn yourself with acid, neutralize it with a base. Water will only dilute it, or in some circumstances make it far worse. Thank goodness acid rain's not a newsworthy issue!
