- Just curious, do you have any idea of what this is going to smell like
- when it thaws? Perhaps followups should be directed to alt.tasteless ...

- That's too much to use all at once, you're going to need a lot of carbon
- to match the nitrogen in the poopsicles. Could you bury it and cover
- it with something to keep them frozen? They used to do this with ice
- back before refrigeration came in. Then you could get managable amounts
- to add to your compost pile.
-
- Good luck ... and I hope you have an understanding wife. ;-)
