One bumper sticker warning that the windstorm didn't heed
CINCINNATI - Sunday's windstorm, whether brought on by Hurricane Ike or a Cincinnati hockey mascot, totally ignored warnings by the Ohio Department of Agriculture to never move firewood under any circumstances.
"When that windstorm decided to pull down trees, and blow broken tree limbs everywhere, I don't know if it realized that it was blatantly breaking Ohio law," said Ohio Dept. of Agriculture head Robert Boggs, "You should never move firewood, even if you happen to be a windstorm, and you're only moving the firewood 200 feet."
"And that goes for everyone visiting this state, whether you're about to go camping in one of Ohio's beautiful state parks, or if you're getting ready to cause blackouts for thousands of people," said Boggs.
Boggs is asking that the windstorm be fined 2 million dollars for the crime of moving firewood, and 3.5 million for just being an "overall putz".
