Not that I really want to sully myself with the sordid details or anything, but all of this idle chit-chat has got me wondering. My question, if I can phrase it delicately, is HOW precisely do you know that it is, er, *dog* "poo". I mean, have you sent it to the lab and had it analyzed? Did you actually take it out of the bag and eyeball it? And if you did, again the question arises, how did you know that it was *dog* poo, and not the scat of some other common neighborhood pest?   Have you been trained from childhood in the art of identifying species of feces? Are you like one of those pookah sahib white hunters who can spot an elephant turd at 50 paces and distinguish it from that of a rhino? Were you an Eagle Scout like young Andersen, obtaining your special merit badge in Poop Spotting?   Again, I really wish I hadn't poked my nose, so to speak,  into this discussion, if you can call it a discussion, but the more I ponder upon it the more curious I become.       Ross Bender http://rosslynnbender.org/blogger.html
