What the Frack?

First why would two private citizens have extra nitrogen tanks to recycle? Second, why in the hell would they throw them in the river? Those morons need to be hit with a heavy fine and punishment for trying to dump something like that into the Oconee. It's impacted enough without the help of idiots like these. Makes you wonder what else they may have tossed out if they have surplus lab equipment and supplies lying around. While I can't blame UGA staff for not wanting to take in a suspicious drop-off, I hope they called the cops or let someone official know that there where some suspicious characters parading several hazardous tanks around town for disposal.
