Sheesh!
Reminds me of Bill Engvall's "Here's your sign" bit....
Director: "I've got a great idea! Why don't you squeeze water from a turd and drink it? It'll be cool!"
Bear Grylls: "Right! :jumpHold my sign."
Can't you just eat a bunch of leaves or something.

umm Hey Ewker, I didn't know you were here too. Um where is the trip page? lol.
Not for nothing, but were the heck are you gonna find elephant dung on the AT? :rolleyes: I think I'll just stick to springs, rivers and lakes for my water!

As a service to my fellow hikers, I will be using an elephant as my pack animal on my hike :D
So, is it only elephant dung or can you use any? Let's see, as we walk the Trail we need different areas... One for imported dung and one for domestic!!! Wow, think of the Kodak moments for the tourists... and the souvineers we could sell along the way... here you go, imported poop from the AT, don't leave home without it.... the possiblities are endless...

OK Guys:
I just watched the video.
I have a twinkie in my backpack or I can squeeze the turd:
U'mMMMMMMM, let me think.
I'm sorry, but I am going for the twinkie and will hope I can make it down the trail for something better.
I mean, come on. If I got lost in the smokies and had to admit that I saved myself my squeezing water or something from bear turds, do you think that all of you would still call me CaptChaos?? I can see it now on the trail, "Hi I'm CaptChaos, oops, I'm sorry, I used to be CaptChaos, they call me TurdSqueezer now!".

They (sorta) do that in Alaska with Moose turds. Beside the turds they sell candy that looks like it and tea. Oh and jewelry.

If someone will buy 'em might as well sell 'em. The turd merchants probably laugh the whole way to the bank.
