I mentioned his obsession with poop the other day on DU and angered DU's poop fan club. I had no idea there were so many people on DU who believe that playing with poop is the best way to get an accurate measure of health. Most of us just flush it so others won't have to smell it. It nauseates me to think of playing with poop or deeply investigating it in any way. Flushing just seems like the better idea to me. I had no idea poopology was such a deeply held belief by so many people.
