This type of thinking is exactly what I'm talking about. Yeah, you might not see a change in the lake this year or next, but when you grandchildren are swimming in a polluted, lifeless lake, and everyone's property value hits rock bottom, we'll all have you to thank. Do you throw trash out the window of your car when you drive down the street? After all, it's only one soda can or burger wrapper, it won't make a difference right? Some people will never learn...

This lake was here long before you and will be here long after you die. If you think your health and safety is more important than an ecosystem as large as Winni, YOU'RE WRONG. The lack of respect that you show for the lake illustrates how ignorant you truly are. I feel sorry for you and this is the last I will post on the subject.

Please people, don't spread chemicals around your property. Whether it's bug killer, weed killer or fertilizer, it's all bad for the water. It's only a matter of time before the effects will be seen, and by then, it will already be too late.
