It looks as if they've tried, but people keep tearing down whatever barricades are put up around it. Shame about the lobster....how is it the hamsters were able to sink, though? Aren't they too light?

I'm also interested in finding out more about their environmental group, Friends of Quicksand.

Anyone else seeing the possibilities for a conference?

Is this for real? It seems rather unlikely to me. Seems like some sort of spoof, what with the deaths of hamsters and lobsters "thrown in by disgruntled owners".

Its gotta be a hoax; why would anyone name a locality "Trousers Farm"? Esto es uno humeroso; donde esta la proxima hospital per favor?
