This is correct. It's all drugs out there in use, not just recreational. Birthcontrol, ibuprofin, aspirin, paxil, xanax and the list goes on and on. The east coast and mid-west currently hasvemajor issues with this in many of their waterways. Why do you think frogs are being born with extra legs. two heads and both types of naughty bits and all that? Our water is nothing but a drug cocktail, shaken - not stirred as served up by big Pharma. Add it to the list of what else can we screw up. With everything else going wrong, its a miracle even one salmon egg gets laid, let alone hatches and becomes a viable adult.


Bingo> We have a WINNER tonight! Nail meet Head!
