I used to work in a Sewage Treatment Plant many years ago. We had to have signs up at all the tanks saying "No Swimming" and "Do Not Drink"
One has to wonder that if someones gene pool was so shallow that they would intentionally swim in a tank of sewage they ought to catch something and die before they have a chance to reproduce.
Our (unofficial) motto was, "Your shit is my bread and butter"

Your right. Anyone stupid enough to not know to avoid swimming in SURAGE deserves whats comming to them... same with people who iron cloths while they are wearing them, or stick candles into their ears.

clubagreenie....why are you intending on swimming in sewerage? Pipe inspection?
I once had dealings with these guys whose job it was in the old Water Board, to get into wetsuits and inflatable rafts or modified skateboards (depepending on the size of the sewer main) and paddle/push through it to inspect the condition of the pipes.
