Courthouse Facility Dogs? Sign of how screwed up we are, or that we miss the natural world?

I received this in my legal email:

Wyoming State Bar Members,

I am sending this email on behalf of a graduate student at the University of Wyoming who is in the psychology and law program.

The purpose of this survey is to assess legal professionals’ attitudes and beliefs about courthouse facility dogs and their impact on civil and criminal trials. You do not need to have any prior familiarity with courthouse facility dogs to complete this survey. The results of this survey will be used to inform future research on the impact of courthouse facility dogs on legal procedures and decisions, so it is essential that we hear the perspectives of as many legal professionals as possible. To be eligible for participation, you must be older than 18, fluent in English, and a current or former legal professional. This survey should take about 5-10 minutes to complete.

Central Stoneroller (Campostoma anomalum)

Central Stoneroller (Campostoma anomalum).

They only eat algae and they're native to North America.  

The perfect solution.

I'm willing to accept a no bid contract to put them in the reflecting pool for a mere $15,000,000.

Okay, I posted this as a joke, but you know, it's not that bad of an idea.  Stonerollers require a big pool and they only eat algae.

The reflecting pool isn't doing anything else anyway.   Why not?
