See!!!!  Am I not proved right!

Aqua Kem Green.  I have asthama - very unhealthy for anyone with asthma to 
go any where near fomaldehyde (except for me, in a good fume cupboard at 
work).  Indeed too much exposure to fomaldehyde can lead to occupational 
asthma (among other things).  Not to mention the other ingredient in "blue" 
is methanol..... :-(
I leave it until the pot is full - unless it starts to really pong - 
unusual, as the seal on a portapotti is very good - an elsan needs a 
emptying a bit more often.  If we are boating then it's every two days for 
emptying (big tank - can just carry it when full)
