Yeah, gotta wonder what the Super Freepers would do if they had to splash through that putrid muck and had a cut or cracked skin anywhere to allow the muck to "work". Start culturing moldy bread to make their own penicillin?
Penicillin was actually eventually derived from mold on a cantaloupe.
Some of us old freepers have actually slogged around in putrid muck. It's not happy making time, but if you have a brain, and keep your wits about you, you can come out the other side.

As a big city plumber, do you think that I have been in muck and city sewers with open cuts in my time? It isn't exactly the end of the world, wading through water tainted with some of it, sure isn't the end of the world.
