It has to be done.
And it’s way overdue. This is an infrastructure project (along with removing dams) that is worth the cost.
Citizens shouldn’t have to post sewage warning signs themselves
The most ridiculous part of the story is the guy who had to post signs along the Alewife Brook path warning people not to walk through the puddle of sewage.
Removing the combined sewers is a hugely expensive project, but better notification systems would be comparatively easy. An activist group is asking the state to install electronic signs that warn of sewage conditions. This already exists in the DC area.
Magoo sez
Sewage is gross. Magoo.
Mega-Gross! Pushing a baby
Mega-Gross! Pushing a baby carriage through a puddle of sh*t.
Weirdly
A post about shit being spread everywhere seems like the one appropriate place to see a Magoo comment
The toilet paper hanging from the tree branches
really puts a fine point on it, doesn't it.
All the shit that's fit to
All the shit that's fit to print.
Well, you know what they say
Court rules that sometimes shit happens.
