You couldn't be more wrong.There is quite a difference in human waste and dead fish. I continue to post that I was part of a group playing golf in that horrible smell. The fairways were covered in fine pellet size dark material. That particular day the humidity was 100% when we started the round of golf. The humidity was what caused the smell to be released from the substance being applied as fertilizer. IT WAS NOT FISH KILL !!!! On some of the holes there was no water within a half mile, but the smell was just as strong as every other location. Do you really think the golf division or the Daily Sun would admit that we Villagers were playing golf atop human waste ??? If you do, then I have a snow plow here in Florida I would like to sell you.
