I read the title three times before it remotely made sense.

Is it written in Canadian?

"stream" has another more common meaning online, "stream watchers" has a meaning, "stream watchers link" has a meaning I'm used to. "Unprecedented" in quotes. Ok, sounds like a good link.

So immediately I think I'm on familiar ground, we're talking about streaming. Then I get this word "coho" I've never heard before. That's cool, shake it off. Followed by "salmon". Lost now. "Kill to tire toxin"... Kill used there is unusual. Tire has two meanings, are we talking about exhausted fish or something else? Lets start over and reread this sucker.

"Stream watchers" meaning people who literally watch streams of water? "Salmon kill" meaning salmon deaths? "Tire toxin" whatever the hell that is?

Don't act like this is a good sentence. It's a damn minefield.

My guy is so chronically online he doesn't know what a stream is.

How about a river, ever heard of those?
