You know I just could not stay away from this one! I really thought it was a joke when I saw the first link on Boing Boing. Especially when it liked out to an article named:

Stranger still, it seems to be legit! Links lead to PLOS: Neglected Tropical Diseases and talks about hook worms and other fecal egg counts....HONEST!!! of course it is some of the methodology that set me over the juvenile edge. Stuff like
- 222 samples were collected....not saying a thing....each sample was cut into four pieces. (turd cutter....hows that for a job description...I think I need professional help)
- and of course this line "Some samples were homogenized"
- and the infamous " keeping collected stool samples cool and moist
Not making fun of important research, but I am totally amazed at some of the projects and some of the people who contribute....that might have been a poor choice of words....
