emjay Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Makes me wonder if they saw the things I've seen people do to fellows......j/k haha. Because a 21-year-old man was caught on a security camera urinating into a city reservoir, Oregon's biggest city is sending 8 million gallons of treated drinking water down the drain. Portland officials defended the decision Monday, saying they didn't want to send city residents water laced, however infinitesimally, with urine. Public health officials say, however, that urine is sterile in healthy people and that the urine in the reservoir was so diluted - perhaps a half pint in millions of gallons - that it posed little risk. Some people in the city, in the suburbs and around the world called the flush an overreaction, especially since animals such as ducks contribute waste routinely and, sometimes, die in the water.

flytyer57 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Gotta wonder if he'll be charged with "terrorism" for poisoning the cities drinking water. There's a fine line between fishing and sitting there looking stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why they flushed it. Pete Someone is suffering from severe Pabst envy today. I have spent most of my money on fly fishing and beer. The rest I just wasted.

Al Agnew Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 That's just unbelievably stupid on so many levels. Like the news link said, other critters urinate in the reservoir all the time. The amount of urine from one episode is infinitesimal. And the water is TREATED. Geez, if that freaks people out, how would they cope with using the Mississippi River as your drinking water source?

ness Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Al's right. And, just so all you St. Louis folks know, I just dropped a deuce. Should be there Friday, or sooner with all this high water. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess you're just bitter about having to drink from Boner Spring every day. Poo isn't too bad in comparison...gives the water a rich chocolatey flavor with nutty undertones.
