The title of Randy Palmer's posting was:

"For you natural septics I have a natural solution."

Did he mean "skeptics"?

Okay Randy, would you please post a summary of your
experiment?

1) What prompted you to do the experiment? What sorts of
   symptoms were your plants exhibiting? What sorts of
   (carnivorous) plants do you have?

2) Repeat for me once more the the treatment you used. How
   many applications were there? How many plants did you
    treat?

3) What were the observed results? Over what period of time?
    Over how large a plant population? Did you include some
    control plants that weren't treated, for comparison?

4) If the treatment works, do you have a hypothesis to explain
   the mechanism?

Although it may not cost much to buy the materials for such
a "natural" experiment, if the plants suffer then the cost
to someone's collection could be more than they'd care to
endure.

Regards,

Perry Malouf
