Don't forget ducks, seagulls, etc.
To add a little more confusion to the marine water pollution arguments, the journal SCIENCE (29 Mar. 2002) reported on a study which tracked the biological sources of fecal bacterial in Virginia watersheds. Only 15% of E. coli bacteria had a human origin (i.e. septic runoff and boat discharge). The remainder came from other animal hosts, the largest contributor being waterfowl with 32.5% of the total. Similar studies are being carried out in California, Washington, and Oregon. Whats next? Diapers for geese? What about whales and everything else in the ocean? Who's gonna change them? -- Keith __ There are three simple rules for making a smooth return to your slip. Unfortunately no one knows what they are. You would like it in your swimming pool? No? don't dump it in our swimming pool, please. This is ONLY MY PERSONAL OPINION. To be consistent then, your opinion should include having a little chat with all the fish ****ting in your pool, see if you can get them to stop. Stephen |
