I caught it, George, but I'm sure somebody'll take you seriously ... Before
long, headlines will be decrying the Harper Government for completely
rewriting the highway traffic act... :)

Take Care,

Sometime around 1997 a petition was circulated, to ban the use of dihydrogen
monoxide on the grounds that in large quantities it caused a lot of deaths.
As a result of the petitions some town in California banned its use in
cleaning compounds.

Which town was that. In 2004 San Viejo did go so far as putting
legislation to ban its use in styrofoam food containers on the docket
but pulled it before it came to a vote.

The person who circulated the petition in 1997 was a high school student
who got 43 signatures out of 50 persons approached, with the petition
used as the basis for his science fair project.
