From today's Chron:
And finally: The online SFist reports that the very official-sounding Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco has launched a petition drive to rechristen the Oceanside Wastewater Treatment Facility at Ocean Beach as the "George W. Bush Sewage Plant."
The grassroots group - whose members include former mayoral candidate Chicken John, gender illusionist Peaches Christ and businessman Sister Porn Again - claims it's pushing a November 2008 ballot initiative that will ask voters to bless the name change, and thus ensure Bush "an enduring legacy."
"We believe this is an appropriate honor for a truly unique president," the group says on its Web site.
City Public Utilities Commission spokesman Tyrone Jue said nobody has contacted his department about changing the name - but if they do, you can bet someone inside the PUC will raise a stink
Go in Peace
