Do you guys think that this is odd, I gett the trash peice but I have to say on a hot day I myself would like to climb into a fountain or two. I don't but it would be refreshing. Should swimming in the fountain be legal?

In Guelph, Ontario, the college kids invariably will put detergent in the downtown fountain. Suds everywhere.

I lived in Maryland and I'm familiar with Rockville. It's a nice area. I guess they want to keep it that way.
