Might as well establish myself as a full fledged nutter.
On my farm we've got a little camp. The camp has an outhouse which is nearing
unusable because the hole is about full. This summer I did an experiment in
humanure. Basically you do your business in a bucket that has a layer of
sawdust in
you could make biogas and, with some fiddling, use it like propane in a gas
engine. Biogas is very widespread on a small scale in India and China.
Human feces has been used in China as a fertilizer for 4,000 years.

I had a summer job working at a nearby provincial park, and part of my
