Sorry. I just saw the forwarded piece I responded to. Sometimes I can't follow all the posts. I live a too fast life.

I think there is some good reason to anticipate that we may have to know how to use humanure safely in the future. and I know the USDA and other governmental agencies are under the influence of other interests besides the taxpayers and the light of truth.

Marty,
Isn't that what I said? Transference, not uptake?

I am not a plant physiologist-- but gosh-- I had to
understand it to finish my degree!!! We just have a
couple peole on here who DO NOT GET IT-- and will
believe everything the USFDA and CDC has to say--
After all, our governments will take care of us,
correct?

Terry W -- Who may very well have some oceanfront
property for sale in Tennessee very soon. Or should I
sell the Big Bridge I own over the San Francisco Bay?

Sorry Paul-- just HAD to do it....

The cases of salmonella are caused by the pathogens

the plant not by what is taken up by the roots. All
the cases of food
poisoning by pathogens that I have heard of were
caused by people in
some manner or other transferring the pathogens to
the surface of the
food. If the greywater contained mercury or cadmium
or some other
poisonous element or compound tiny enough to be
absorbed by plants then
it could be dangerous but that's not likely in
households where toxic
chemicals are not used. Any plant physiologists out
there?
