Commenter Frank Borger made a note the other day in my Firece Wisconsin Penguins post about nasty, vicious northern Wisconsin Norskie penguins and that they ate lutefisk.
Just in case you don't know how badass that is, think about this little factiod that Mr. Borger brought to my attention in an email. There are laws in Wisconsin that are made to protect workers (called right to know laws) in case they work in a hazardous environment...and there are things that are exempt from these regulations. Please see regulation 101.58(2)(j)2.f. f.
Like I said...badass.
1. "Toxic substance" means any substance or mixture containing a substance regulated by the federal occupational safety and health administration under title 29 of the code of federal regulations part 1910, subpart z, which is introduced by an employer to be used, studied or produced in the workplace.
