You could also carry it all up to the peak of your favorite pristine local
mountain, and then just splash it over the rocks up there.

I mean, it would be gone, and certainly in a few thousand years, the Earth's
wonderful (but slow) filtering systems would take care of it, and break it
down into whatever it ends up getting broken down into.

Of course for a few hundred years you will have some interesting new
mutations of glowing green or blue earthworms up there, and possibly a few
Robins who evolve an extra stomach to process such glowing worms in... But
that was all in Mother Nature's grand plan anyways... wasn't it?

My point here is... it may indeed be "possible" to flush the stuff into the
sewer, but it is definately NOT the best of all available options. It is
"possible" to burn all your leaves and dead wood at the end of autumn in
your backyard too... but there are more elegant ways of disposing of them
too.

Once the human children start being born with greenish-blue colored skin...
then folks will get serious, and take the stuff to the recycling plants.

I can hardly wait!

somewhere in the subject line of the email.  Otherwise it goes directly in
the trash.
