    (Another) Ohio River Spill

    This one is ugly. 100 million gallons of sewage/stormwater into the river.

    The EPA us busy with a Darter Minnow in California.......they don't give two SHITS about real stuff....

    This is unreal......but will cost billions of dollars to resolve, and no one has the stomach politically to even suggest it.

    George did you know that Darter Minnows and other small invertebrates are INDICATOR SPECIES that fisheries scientist and ecologist used to help find if the water is polluted or clean. They are important to the ecosystem.

    And the USEPA is working hard to try to stop Cities and Factories from dumping materials into the Countries Rivers so that the Rivers stay healthy.

    It's too many people like George and I popping that's causing the problem with the poop being dumped into the Rivers. We have to many people these days is basically what I'm saying.

    So the truth is that EPA does give two shits about this stuff and someone is going to get fined big time for this spill.
