And I am stoned AF cruising Reddit looking for folks to aimlessly argue with.

Hope to catch you again on another thread sometime. Have a good night.

Pretty sure developing new interests was the suggestion, not lying about fake ones.

Is that right?

Anyway, do you live in Maine? Most folks I know there bitch about this issue all the time. They’d all get a good laugh out of the guy’s comment. Mainers have very thick skin and as a group tend to enjoy pretty rough humor. Not sure why you are taking it so hard.

I mean, having lived in both Maine and Mass for multiple years, his comment is relatively in line with what I experienced.

What part are you concerned about? I’m pretty sure OP will know that the egg laying thing was most likely a joke.

Dude you don’t seem to understand how this works.

The way the initial response was handled was wrong, and so wrong it’ll likely be deemed criminal. We all agree on that.

But the contaminated soil disposal seems to be working appropriately.

There are sites across the country that receive hazardous waste. That’s their entire business. Cleaning dirty dirt. Most sites will only accept dirt that had certain contaminants, because that’s what they specialize in processing. Often, that means contaminated dirt is moved across state lines for treatment. It is absolutely not normal for states to be alerted when this happens. It’s literally just regular old interstate commerce. Are states alerted every time a tanker truck with hazardous cargo enters their borders? Of course not.

This is already a big deal. Let’s not blow it up by mixing in conspiracy theories and misleading information. It takes away from the seriousness of the situation.

This is a nice idealistic take, but it’s obviously not accurate or realistic.

Christmas gift? Got my wife one of the other flower sets. Super cool.
