It's reported here that the drugs Prozac, Zoloft and Sarafem have been found in the brains of fish in the great lakes, apparently from waste water. These drugs apparently don't get taken out of the effluent from the water treatment plants before they make their way into the ecosystem....

Great, now we'll get people jumping in the water near water treatment plants to imbibe!

Now hand them a beer and the fish will go crazy like a old girl friend of mine. Never mix a stimulant with a depressant.

My old girl find took zoloft. It's a antidepresent but it's also a stimulant. When she drank alcohol she would black out and become another person. The guys at the jail wanted me to come and get her. She was kicking and screaming. That was after she kicked out a highway patrols side window. I said no way in hell. Keep her I don't want her. She got her name in the paper also.
