Quick correction: The E. Coli outbreak at the Atlanta water park happened because someone didn’t use a waterproof diaper for their kid in the kiddie pool. It was also determined that the Chlorine levels were lower than the allowable limit (which is why the E. Coli didn’t die quickly).

Ransom, I hope you’re aware that some farms here in the States fertilize their crops with human waste. It’s a pretty disgusting and unhealthy practice, but it happens, and some of that food is then sold at a premium price and billed as “organic”. Call it what you will, but I wish they’d label it in some way that would let people know what they’re buying.

If you don’t believe me, do a Google search for “use human waste as fertilizer”.
