Urine is fine. I mean, medically. I was trying to get fixed, up, once, in India, and contemplating bush travels to all sorts of historically important "medical" centers out in the jungle, or up in the mountains, and I remember thinking, "Don't go to whatever School that is that drinks that stuff. "

Y'know, I always consider this as "common knowledge", but perhaps it isn't.... That the mordant for indigo dye is urine... Perhaps I know that because I've worked with natural dye plants... Did you know that in... hmmm... was it Pompeii...they have found vats at the end of streets where people would go to deposit urine so that the dyers could use it for indigo dyeing... Fascinating, huh??

You can also use human urine as a deer repellent... by depositing it on concrete building blocks set up at the corners of a garden...

(Yep...there we go... a little urine history mixed with a little concrete history...)...
