Re: Yucca Mtn. This should raise some hackles

For some reason, this question called to mind the current advice offered
to organizers of wilderness/camping excursions.
 Rather than providing the traditional midden consisting of a trench and
seats,
one is adjured to advise each participant to locate a new place at a few
minutes
 walk from the campsite, for every defecation, and to dig a hole, use it and
cover it after one use.

Apparently, the biosystem handles low concentrations of human waste more
successfully than central dumps.
