400,000 black balls dropped to Ivanhoe Reservoir to save people from cancer. Planning to add 3,000,000 more.

Wow! So I assume these degrade into the water?
i read the news today oh boy
400,000 balls in ivanhoe
and though the balls were rather small
they had to count them all
now they know how many holes it takes to fill the reservoir

I’m relieved that it’s not a crazy all male, all black naked parade like the title suggests.
And in a dramatic twist of irony, the plastic that the balls are formed from end up causing cancer to whomever uses the reservoir.
Thank you, Billy Manic. That made my day.
All that plastic leaching deadly plastic chemicals into the water is an improvement?
The black balls are black, they will heat up the water, degrade ever so fast and render the water undrinkable.
Bravo.
I read the Gizmondo link. I don’t think this guy has any idea what he’s doing and hasn’t considered all the ramifications. He writes like he’s 14 so I don’t think he’s smart enough to. Kids, when you’re about to do something that effects other people and you’re not sure it’s a 100% good idea, please consult a grown-up or a scientist before proceeding, kthxbye
yup- some people are REALLY stupid…..
They’re supposed to do what exactly? The city gov’t of LA are ok w/ this? The people of LA are ok w/ this? If I lived in LA, I’d start buying bottled water exclusively.

^ tl;dr: the balls provide shade to the reservoir, which prevents certain carcinogens from forming.
it’s gay… balls are touching. >_>
@... Peach : Ever hear of Tupperware? Same material. Ever hear of tin foil? Do you wear it as a hat?
What a coincidence … and I was just thinking the other day about making some improvements on my scrotum.
