Those "Intersex" Fish From California

I want to go to bed, but I keep finding interesting things to blog.

Scientists have discovered "sexually altered" fish off the California coast. This would be a nearly perfect place to insert a joke if the issue wasn't so darn creepy.

The scientists caught 82 male English sole and hornyhead turbot (I'm sorry, I really do have to pause for a moment -- they said "hornyhead"!) off Los Angeles and Orange counties. Of these, eleven had ovary tissue in their testes.

According to the article, the discovery of these fish raises "concerns that treated sewage discharged into the ocean contains chemicals that can affect an animal's reproductive system."

Wonder what it does to people.
