More than 80% of the male bass fish in Washington's major river are now

stew" of pollutants, scientists and campaigners reported yesterday.


I thought that was a result of "Don't ask, don't tell" Â*;-)


Could be. I wouldn't swim or fish in that river. The bay isn't quite as
bad in many areas, but I still don't swim in it.


The problem with the bay is sea nettles. About the time the water gets
warm enough to get in, the sea nettles arrive. We used to joke that
you could see them from the road on that last hill before you drop in
on Chesapeake Beach.


What's a "sea nettle?"
