Prozac killing bacteria in the Great Lakes

Killing off bacteria might seem like a good thing. "Your immediate thought is, 'well, that's good, because they're not supposed to be there anyways," said Mercyhurst College microbiologist Steve Mauro, whose team found fluoxetine in low doses in water near Lake Erie's beaches. "But what about all the other bacteria that are supposed to be there and part of that ecosystem?"

It sounds similar to the problems like high blood pressure, global warming etc, things that don't have any "OMFG!" value so not much will get done about them until some clear-catastrophe happens and the "fix" will cost a lot more than preventative measures would have (usually).

Well then clearly Juggalos must be stopped.

Sadly they cannot be stopped...they clearly state in a video that "we don't die" which I think means that they don't die...but they still don't know how magnets work so...
