#1 What about when fish die? Aren't they made partially of fat?

#2 I suspect neighborhood cats would take care of any spillage long before the EPA goons could get their hazmat suits on. The EPA reached the point of diminishing returns long ago. Yet more overreach from an insanely bloated bureaucracy. "We must protect our phony-baloney jobs, gentlemen!"

#3 And yet, the EPA REFUSES to regulate dihydrogen monoxide (also known as DHMO), despite the proven problems it causes: it is a major greenhouse gas. It is often found in sewage. When in the solid state it can cause tissue damage; when in the gaseous state, it can cause severe burns. Over-consumption can cause severe health problems, yet once people become addicted to it, they often die within a week or even in a few days when deprived of it. Most criminals have consumed DHMO within a day or less of committing their crimes!

Many people have signed petitions to ban, or at least regulate dihydrogen monoxide, including at the recent global warming convention in Cancun. However, the EPA and other government agencies refuse to even consider any regulations on this dangerous chemical.

For more information on DHMO, see this website.

Talk about an agency which is out of control.

(I'm an addict of DHMO too...)

#10 Could you lobby a senator to pass a law making every EPA regulation end with a Harumpf?

#11 No use regulating over spilled milk?

#12 This could actually be fun. It'd be cool to see true believers Ben and Jerry cuffed and doing the perp walk after another spill at the ice cream factory continues to wreak havoc on the pristine environment of Vermont...

#18 Next up to be regulated Farts. They come under the Hazzardus Vapor Release regulations. They consist of gasp Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Hydrogen Sulfide, Carbon Monoxide, and several other icky compounds.

"Today the Environmental Protection Agency finalized a rule that subjects all Americans to install "Afterburners". EPA has discovered that Human gas contains "a percentage of methane, which is a non-petroleum based gas," as the agency put it in the Federal Register.

The EPA mandates the installation of "afterburners", by all Americans immediately, as new holes have been detected in the Ozone layer directly above and in Washington D.C.

The EPA thinks the next blowout may happen circa April 15, 2011 and has contracted the IRS to help mitigate problems of human gas discharge.

#19 Talk about an agency which is out of control.

Name one Agency that isn't out of control, or hasn't Abandoned their core mission. Excluding the DOD, but I'm expecting an outbreak of insanity there real soon.

#20 I hold no brief for the EPA here, but weird things have happened. An ill-maintained forklift in a food warehouse set the place on fire, and after a day or so we had a river of butter crawling towards the lake.

#21 Next up to be regulated Farts.

I submitted a post here a few days ago about an African nation that approved a law that fined people for passing gas. The post was rejected here obviously but the comments from the general public was interesting to read. "How can you tell in a crowd who just passed gas?" - "How can you bring evidence into court on this matter? Just hearsay? Kids will be bringing their parents to court! This is crazy."

#22 I am a DHMO addict.

I'm worried about getting hooked on the stuff, so I always cut it with a little ethanol. Don't want to sap and impurify my precious bodily fluids.
