Holy Crap Yet Another Reason to Compost

Here is a Traffic Alert or what is called a "SigAlert" that is in effect here in LA. Nothing too exciting or earth shaking about bad traffic in crowded Los Angeles. Until you read what is the Hazardous Material causing the freeway shutdown.

From California Highway Patrol website: Hazardous material spill closes 5 lanes

The northbound I-5 freeway at the 405 is the site of a SigAlert, after a late morning accident caused a spill that covered several lanes of traffic. Two traffic lanes and the truck lanes remain shut down, awaiting Caltrans cleanup crews. The substance, described as black and slippery, was initially thought to be tar, but was determined to be irradiated human waste. The waste is not hazardous and was on its way to be processed into fertilizer.

I am never buying fertilizer ever again.
