Haven't seen you out at the launch ramps here or at Deale or down at
Solomons, herring...surely you are not fishing in the potomac near where
you launch, just downstream of the sewage treatment plant...

When they did the renovation of Blue Plains(70s), they had the
director on TV saying his discharge water was cleaner than the river,
then he scooped up a glass and drank it.
I know the river did get better.
If I was going out of Ft Washington I would worry more about the
septic tanks in PG county than the sewer plant.

Actually I launch upstream of the plant. But you're right, the water coming from
the plant is much cleaner than the water coming from the Susquehanna and other
rivers flowing into the bay. Fecal matter in the water keeps many of the
Chesapeake beaches closed for half the summer.

Oh, and BTW, I don't respond to Harry who is doing little more than trolling. I
put him in the same class as nincdepoop and jps - maybe down a couple notches.

But, if you condone their behavior, then help yourself.

Hey John it is like golf. You have to play wherever the ball lands.
Sometimes it is in the fairway, sometimes you have to play out of the
rough.
I don't take any of this seriously enough to get mad at anyone.
I think there are a lot of good people here who just get caught up in
the rhetoric and say insensitive things.

Yeah, but when my balls land in a pile of wet cow ****, I play another one.

Maybe you shouldn't be shagging cows.
