The 80-proof goof happened early Tuesday at a bottling plant in Dumbarton, where workers were cleaning equipment. Instead of purging the wastewater, they instead expelled 18,000 liters of bulk whisky into the local sewage system.

I had some a week before the incident occurred. Not the same whiskey these days.

I'm guessing the "sewer rats" aren't the same these days either! :fever:

I'm confused. Did you have the whiskey or the sewage?

Hmm, an enterprising and frugal Scotsman with a respirator and shop vac? Bottle it and what? Scottish Kahlua?

Works for me. I use to drink stuff that just had to be filtered through a jock strap, while it was still being worn.

I see you've spent some time at Badlands near Castro St.

Let me guess. Were you in the Navy at the time? I've heard stories.

No. I was in the Army. It's just like the Navy, without the water.
