D.C. toilet shortage

The calls of nature may be particularly loud at an upcoming D.C. event if attendees don't have a place to "go." Comedy Central organizers are having a hard time finding port-o-potties for their rallies to take place in a week and a half, after the Marine Corps Marathon planners snatched up about 800 of them for the same weekend. The organizers of Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity and Stephen Colbert's March to Keep Fear Alive, both to take place Saturday, Oct. 30, have asked the marathon staff to share the portable toilets with their 65,000 expected to attendees. But the Marines aren't budging -- they plan to lock the toilets until the morning of their race the day after, they tell the New York Times...more

There's all kinds of things I could say about this but I will refrain. I've always been fond of the Marines though.

Aren't there any endangered turtles in DC?
