Blood Pumping Action!
I saw this on Drudge this morning, but thought it worth posting. My wife is very afraid of blood and needles, and this started as an email thread to her "This is your worst nightmare." Worth a read, but what's most odd to me, is that the company actually has a permit to dump it.

I read this myself, and thought it was horrible that this is actually permitted. It sure makes me wonder what else is in our sewers, besides that "crap" we already know about.
this does not suprise me. working in a building where all office suites are either dental or medical, always had sewer problems. we would pump all evacuation systems into the sewer. i remember when the city had to break up the parking lot to unclog the pipes, and the smell of old blood was in the air. if you have ever had the pleasure if working with blood, you will never mistake it's stench. The horror of having it sprayed onto you, and into your mouth is unimaginable. i don't think i'd believe that having ingested a mixture to blood from a sewer would not be harmful.
Why the heck did this guy have his mouth open, for goodness sake. He knows there's a very good chance of getting spraying with some stranger's SHIT!

i am sorry i ever reignited the nightmare that is this story by reading these comments. excuse me while i curl up in the fetal position and rock myself.
Also interesting is that when you go in the doctors office, they put those contaminate/hazardous materials stickers all over everything - even for a the dot of blood on the cotton balls... But for some reason, when it's just two million gallons of infected blood and bodily fluid, there's no indicator anywhere. I think they should, at a minimum, put something on manhole covers or something... This topic screams for investigation by Mike Rowe (Discovery's Dirt Jobs)
