I Bet You've Never Heard Of A Stupider Law...

In California, it's very rare for a dairy to send manure to a landfill. The vast majority of it is dealt with onsite. And has anyone actually read the text of the bill that was signed and referenced in the first post? Don't believe everything you read on an online newspaper. I thought you guys knew better than that... BTW, the California dairy industry has quite heavy involved in the drafting of the bill.

No, I didn't quote the entire bill - just the part that struck me as stupid.
I'm sure the California dairy industry was heavily involved in the drafting of the bill since we're the #1 ranked state by number of milk cows in the entire United States - with over 500,000 more milk cows that the #2 ranked state (Wisconsin).
The dairy industry is huge in California. It's just my opinion that trying to regulate cow farts is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of.
Oh, by the way, the Orange County Register is not an online newspaper. It's a well-respected three-time Pulitzer prize winning conservative viewpoint print newspaper that's been in business since 1905.
