About 1,600 pounds of saltwater bass died on Oct. 11 when a container truck hauling them to market got into a three-way crash.
Dina Kourda, a local volunteer with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, wrote the head of street maintenance requesting a sign at the intersection to honor the fish.
Kourda's letter notes that while roadside memorials traditionally honor human beings, she hopes an exception will be made to remind drivers that all animals -- in her words -- "value their lives and feel pain."
Irvine spokesman Craig Reem tells the Los Angeles Times that no memorial is planned.

But, I hate PETA. It's a band of attention whores pulling publicity stunts without one single credit to their name for any real improvement to animal wellbeing.
I see that this thread is floundering, but I must admit that I was hooked at first.
Right next to the mashed potatoes.
That is near worthy of getting yourself banned from TUSCL! :)

@ shadowcat: In college, I was offered the opportunity to join an intramural softball team. When I asked what the team's name was, I was told, the "Master Batters." I declined to join.
