Cool Shirt..
We also like the ones that have some version of the "Unsalted" theme but we do have a reason…
Our youngest attends the Univ of Louisville. He was in a Biology lab that was being "taught" by a grad student. The topic was the affect of various parasites in saltwater ecosystems….such as the Great Lakes.
That comment led to a VERY heated discussion between our son and the grad student, which ended with the prof-wannabe stating "the Great Lakes are connected to the Atlantic Ocean which means they're saltwater bodies of water and I'm not going to argue anymore about it".
So…our son wrote a letter to the department head explaining what went down…long story short he received an apology from the grad student and there was an extra credit question on the final exam re. the salinity of the Great Lakes.
What he thought was the most amazing ? Not that the grad student - who had a major in biology - didn't know the Gr. Lakes were freshwater, but the majority of the kids in class (none obviously from Mi) thought our son was wrong.
The future of our country lies in the hands of kids who don't know the Great Lakes are freshwater ?

That's good. Leave our freshwater alone. Let them figure out how to desalinize the water more efficient.
