I hope the word poop isn't offending anyone!  I am interested in this
article, but have to register with the LA times and don't feel like
getting on any more email lists.  Can someone please forward to me?
Thanks.

By the way, since I recycle most of my stuff, kitty litter is probably
60% by volume (maybe 90% by weight) of my garbage.
