Deicing

The following is a reconstructed conversation from my strategy team meeting about the salt industry.

plasticann: So, we're talking about salt, table salt, road salt, etc.
Friend: Yup, dont' forget about the environmental concerns about deicing.
plasticann: Right, let me write that down....De-icing...I get it.
Friend: Get what?
plasticann: I didn't know what "deicing" was. I thought it was pronounced "dicing" or "deecing" which seemed really weird. Now it get it, it's de-icing salt not deecing or dicing salt.

Apparently, deicing salt is huge because everyone wants to drive real fast on the roads even in the winter, but the salt causes freshwater pollution. Who knew? That's why we should all move to California where the weather is nice and we can drive as fast as we want without the salt. Then, we can systematically kill off the environment of each state piecemeal starting with the warmest states. First, California, then Florida...you get the picture.
