Excerpt
Everyone poops. This well documented fact does not escape the wastewater treatment specialists who work around the country to keep our water clean. While most of us simply hunker down over our thrones of porcelain and flush all of our worries away when we are finished, a select few have made our waste their livelihood. Studying every facet of feces and documenting every oddity in our water systems. They look through microscopes for hours noting each and every string of bacteria to ensure that the next time we take a drink of water we won't gag.
