i read this in a magazine awhile back & couldnt remember where i read it (google is amazing):

http://blogs.nationalgeographic.com/...in-rivers.html

how would it affect fishing? reproductions? it's population? the species? ecosystem? extinction perhaps?

One of the few eco-mania things I actually believe a little. And I think it has to do with all of the birth control pill chemicals being passed every day by our women. Female hormones are quite common in ground water supplies now...it makes me sick.

It has nothing to do with them fishing. It has to do with them just using the bathroom. Those chemicals do not get filtered out by water treatment plants.

This wouldn't be a problem if "birth control" pills were actually used for birth control, rather than menstrual regulation.

By the way...good luck getting it stopped. It'll turn into the obligatory "keep your laws off my body" garbage faster than you can say "hey...why is our son growing breasts?"
