Yahoo! News - L.A. May Ban Silly String on Halloween: "Wed Aug 18,10:23 PM ET
LOS ANGELES - Banning Silly String in Tinseltown on Halloween? It's a proposal that to some seems almost too silly for words.
The City Council considers the issue no laughing matter, however, and on Tuesday gave preliminary approval to an ordinance banning the discharge of the gooey aerosol string in Hollywood on Oct. 31.
'I know we may think this is silly, but it is not silly to the storm drain system of Los Angeles, or to the ultimate destination, the ocean,' said Councilman Tom LaBonge, whose district includes Hollywood.
The council voted 10-0 to approve the ordinance, but another vote is required before it can take effect. "
