Sometimes EPA gets it right

摘要

During a recent conversation, the subject of obscure and irrational laws came up. You know, those crazy laws we read about on emails that are forwarded hundreds of times. I decided to do some quick research to check on the law that was the topic of our pointless discussion, a law making it illegal to tie your giraffe to a lamppost in a particular Georgia town. Although I did not locate information on that item, Google provided a directory of websites listing countless bizarre laws. For instance, it is illegal to eat fried chicken with a fork in Gainesville, Ga. I did not verify any of the seemingly ridiculous laws, but given the inefficiency frequently demonstrated by our government, it would not surprise me if some exist.
