- Additional note 2: We rely on tank water for drinking.
As soon as I recognized the spraying, I covered the inlets to our water
tanks with boards, my reasoning being that the crap would land on our roof,
and the next rain would wash it into our tanks, and then we'd be drinking
it. I'm glad I did that. Two days later, it rained. The water that ran
out of the guttering, over the boards and down onto the ground bubbled
as it hit the ground. Not small bubbles like foam, but larger, soap-like
bubbles.

- Additional note 3: Why here? Daylesford is a small (approx
3,000 pop.) town, but the area is a productive agricultural area. Also,
it was pointed out to me by a local environmental activist type that this
area contains the headwaters of five rivers that spread throughout the
state of Victoria.
