Someplace To Build That Sewage Treatment Plant Nobody Wants In Their Backyard

I don't know why it interests me that there are little bits of weirdness along state and national borders, and I don't mean The Wall or anything about it. I mean things like how there are bits of Minnesota you have to leave the country to get to by land, or how Point Roberts, Washington is attached to Canada and you have to drive through British Columbia to get to the rest of the state. Here's an article about another anomaly: There are two tiny bits of Delaware on the New Jersey side of the Delaware River, namely a 1.7 mile long, 0.6 mile wide swath of marshland and the tip of Artificial Island (WARNING: Not an Island), next to a nuclear facility. You would think they'd say, well, New Jersey can have them, they're uninhabited, anyway, but New Jersey wants nothing to do with them. This is not much as a news story, but it's a moderately interesting "did you know?" item. Or not, but it interests ME. (NJ Advance Media/NJ.com)
