Tried to tell you. Every time I go for a little ride on the Cheezypeek bay I
jump in and take a dump.

So you are saying that Joisy is as bad or worse than the Cheezypeak. We
already knew that.

Gross, Bob. That's really gross!

From what I understand, it's been that way for many, many years. Is
EPA turning a blind eye to he bay?

DC is on the Potomac and the Potomas runs into the Bay. Of course it's going

Sad, but the Bay isn't alone in this. If you google "beach pollution"
and variants, you'll find a seemingly endless list of reports about
polluted waters, beaches, rivers, lakes, et cetera, in the United States.

Some of the beaches on the Gulf Coast of Florida have pollution at toxic
levels. The St. Johns River in Jacksonville has enormous algae blooms,
large fish kills, and acres of foam. That's the same river the Navy
polluted with PCBs. Yesterday, there was an oil spill of a million
gallons in Michigan and that oil is headed to the Great Lakes.

We Americans are not very good shepherds of our natural resources.
