That is seriously cool! I need to refill my printer ink so I can print off the article and instructions.

it's one of those things that makes you wonder about the first person to have discovered it - like "what the heck were they thinking when they washed up with the drainings at the bottom of the garbage can?" - perhaps it can be attributed to strange hobbies -

LOL! Basic sewage treatment 101 in a jar! Make your own anaerobic digester. That is too funny! I think I'll pass on this one. My daddy would have loved this!

Might be good to pour some of this down the drain, if you have a septic tank. That would keep it working good, wouldn't it?

I don't think so. To keep the bacteria alive, you usually have to add air. From what they were saying, it has a huge oxygen demand, so it would probably do more harm to your septic tank than good, by taking the O2 away from the bacteria that are already in there. Probably the best thing for septic tanks is to not put chemicals in them that kill all the bacteria. Every time you flush you're adding to the bacteria, and they're what does the treatment. If you kill them with cleansers and stuff, though, you wind up with no treatment and have to get the solids pumped all the time.

Our septic guy said that I do the best thing for the system - bake bread and make yoghurt. He said that just washing the dishes from those does more than anything you can buy.

Yep, gotta keep plenty of bugs in there and keep 'em happy! Then they liquify everything, and out it goes, making room for more!
