As many of you have probably heard, a group calling themselves the Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco is working to change the name of the San Francisco Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant to the George W. Bush Sewage Plant. They are lobbying to have the initiative placed on the ballot this coming election. As this article from the International Herald Tribune notes: “Republicans in a city that voted 83 percent Democratic in 2004 are not thrilled with the idea.” No doubt. I’m sure they’ll pass the measure. And the best part of it all:
The renaming would take effect on Jan. 20, when a new president is sworn in. And regardless of the measure’s outcome, supporters plan to commemorate the inaugural with a “synchronized flush” of hundreds of thousands of toilets that would send a flood of water toward the plant.
