What The Muck?!




Beware! Watch your step! Warmer weather means return of the quagmires lurking between the curb and the sidewalk in sections of downtown Plattsburgh that have been “renovated.”

Where did this crap come from? Is it “treated” sewage sludge? Considering its consistency (sticky, semi-liquidized feces), one wonders how environmentally friendly it really is. I would like to see an analysis of this muck’s composition. (Not that there’s ever been a case of someone passing off toxic waste as beneficial.)



At least a couple of businesses have realized there is a problem and have put down plywood sheets or carpet so that customers can safely make it to their destinations.

But not all places have such convenient bridges. So when the crap thaws out, don’t step in it. And if you do, I would advise carefully cleaning off your shoes.
