It was an under-the-radar measure around the country. Proposition R in San Francisco would've renamed the sewage treatment plant the "George W. Bush Sewage Treatment Plant."

Alas, the measure failed. "Some critics had pointed out the name switch would have been unfair," the Associated Press said today, "to the hard-working sewage plant."
