You've opened all your presents by now, and you're eating pastry and coffee as you wait hungrily for your meal. Good for you. Try not to have a heart attack, okay?
Moving right along, there was a wildly inaccurate press notice from the EPA just before Xmas. Here's an AP article about it.
When the Canal was flooded by Hurricane Sandy, its "water" flooded into homes and basements in all the surrounding areas. Can you imagine having that kind of toxic sludge in your house?
But rest assured. The EPA says it never happened. Everything is safe, pink and fuzzy. Heck, you could eat your Xmas dinner off the floor in any of those homes. Isn't it great to have a government that takes care of things like this? Ho, ho, ho. Merry Xmas!
Update: Don't believe me about how toxic the Canal is? A dolphin entered the Gowanus Canal and died. The rescuers wouldn't go in the "water" to save it. Too dangerous.

I'm sure the EPA's announcement came as a shock to the people who live by the Gowanus Canal. The article notes that the Gowanus Canal is "heavily contaminated with PCBs, heavy metals, volatile organics and coal tar wastes." People, it's the most disgusting site in America. Trust me on this.OLD BRIDGE, N.J. (AP) — For more than a month, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has said that the recent superstorm didn't cause significant problems at any of the 247 Superfund toxic waste sites it's monitoring in New York and New Jersey.But in many cases, no actual tests of soil or water are being conducted, just visual inspections.

Is that the same EPA that told us when it was safe to near the WTC site again? Merry merry!
That was Christine Todd Whitman, may she rot eternally in hell. It amazes me that this woman can go on with her life after harming so many first responders.
