Not good.


*edit* A quick search shows that Midland, Saginaw, and Bay City all get their water from much further north in Lake Huron, luckily. So any downstream contamination of the Tittabawassee River, Shiawassee River, and their confluence Saginaw River, dump into Lake Huron well south of the inlets.

Only Republicans would be dumb enough to drink Saginaw Bay water, lol.

Cute enough downtown, but not a hell of a lot to do there except eat/drink and hope to find a SO to make babies with. They have a couple golf courses, a few parks, a single-A minor league baseball team whose park doubles as a concert venue, the Dow Gardens and home, and a dying indoor mall. That's basically it.

Northwood has an interesting campus tucked into the woods.

Although this is what it looks like right now.

I shouldn't laugh, but that football field is a complete 180 from what happened in Kalamazoo twice now where their sunk-in design became a bathtub twice. :D
 
Re: The States: Where We Wish Texas Would Secede Already

Are any of the local militias saying water is completely harmless and a hoax and refusing to leave their homes?

Re: The States: Where We Wish Texas Would Secede Already

Now, is it just me, or does it seem like a bad idea to build your chemical making complex complete with contaminated water holding ponds in the middle of a ****ing flood plain?
