But remember, flood water is poo water.
This is so true. In September 1999, Hurricane Floyd came through and put 30" of water in the building where I used to work. Took us weeks to get that place cleaned out and back into full operation. I will never forget the smell of that mud for as long as I live. Months and even years later, we'd move something in the warehouse and find a trace of that mud and the smell. While we were cleaning out the store, we used to joke, "That ain't mud." The description of flood water as "poo water" is apropos.
