I confess to being a pot-stirrer, but sometimes that's what it takes to get people to wake-up and do something about a problem.
Bob, don't feel bad, I'm been labeled as one of those "pot stirrers" by a professional meeting facilitator. Every team needs one to get the very best result out of the group - to question assumptions and overcome groupthink syndrome. That particular team included a dozen engineers from 2 federal agencies, a state agency, local agency, and consultants tasked with selecting the best alternative for a $1 billion project. I'm still heavily involved in the project six years later.
But I disagree with the heavy handed approach you propose. I think well maintained solar toilets are the way to go, which was the original plan before they hijacked the environmental process with this wag bag experiment. Just contract out the maintenance and use llamas, mules, or a couple helicopter trips each season. It works great under similar conditions in Colorado, what, we can't figure it out here in California?
