We went by the Southeast sewage treatment plant and picked up six free
sacks of compost. They loaded them into the car for us, gave us their
DVD "The Sewers of San Francisco", and a free mouse pad!

They have real tours, too; we'll have to schedule one. I've done the
Sewers of Paris tour, so it will be interesting to compare.

Why in the world would you subject yourself to a tour of a SEWER?
*Baffled*

Why in the world would you pass up such an interesting tour unless
you're the type that sits around watching Oprah for all your
informational needs. Large industrial/civil processes are quite
interesting.

When I went skydiving in Baldwin, WI fifteen or twenty years ago, the
drop zone had a big huge sewage treatment thing next to it, which
they called the "turd swirl". They recommended that if your main
chute and backup both malfunction, to aim for it, because it would
be softer than the ground. =:-O

Interestingly, there was no noticeable odor from it.
