Even though Tampa Bay fans treat the Trop as a toxicwastedump all year, even for big games at the end of the season, history shows they tend to show up once the Rays are actually in the playoffs.
They have seen the imposition of any measures designed to slow economic activity rather as they might look at a toxic-waste dump: vital for the greater good, to be sure, but better in someone else's backyard.
That is true in an obvious sense when, for example, companies dumptoxicwaste or use risky technologies in countries whose regulation is relatively lax.
Neighbouring South Korea expressed concern that it was not warned about TEPCO's decision to dump low-level radioactive waste into the sea to make room to store more toxic stuff on land.
