  1. pennsylvania’s capital Harrisburg, dumps 300,000 gallons per year of raw untreated sewage directly into the Susquehanna River, a main tributary of the Chesapeake Bay watershed.

    pennsylvania views the Susquehanna as an open sewer into which dense levels of phosphorus from the rich Amish farmlands.

    pennsylvania will only be held accountable if federal bills are passed prohibiting this century old practice.

    If it isn’t in their own backyard or visible, pennsylvania historically l, doesn’t give a dam..

    Take a Sunday drive to the mill race of the Conowingo dam plugging the mighty Susquehanna River. The reek of raw sewage is enough to make you gag. Worse yet, pennsylvanians, their families, young children knee deep in the stench, dead fish strewn at rivers edge, putrid foam; fishing.

    A way of life, generations oblivious to an environment they are culpable of, destroying life downstream, due to their abject ignorance.

    Oblivious to these facts, are we not culpable too; in the face of demonstrated evidence?

    Take a Sunday drive and see for yourself.

  2. I personally feel absolutely no responsibility for what someone I don’t know and have never seen in some place removed from me has done to their environment.

    I take care of my own.

    It has been my observation as a public health engineer that there are people who don’t mind living in filth and sewage, and I can tell you they get violent if you even suggest that something needs to be done about it, which indicates they seem to prefer it that way.

    Maybe that is why they are known as “****-eaters.”
