Using human waste

[MaryMary]

They use a muck spreader

Um...I'm even more confused. Since he used his hands and she used a shovel... then, "Muck spreader" is a job title?
Hmm, yes, I suppose I'd rather hire one than be one.

In Viet Nam they used 2 buckets, one on each end of a stick. In Turkey they used dump trucks that would go down the ally ways and people would pour it out of 2nd and 3rd floor windows. I once saw an Air Force officer standing on a street corner when a truck full of the stuff made the turn and it sloshed out, covering him completely. I saw great humor in that but he didn't seem pleased at all.

LOL Chuck, sounds like something out of the Middle Ages! They used to do the same thing in Europe.
I would be hesitant to use human waste for a few reasons. First, I would be worried about parasites and diseases, though this is probably a concern with any animal waste. Second, herbivore waste provides more nutrients to the soil than does omnivore or carnivore waste. I read somewhere that ruminants produce the best quality dung fertilizer because of their digestive process. If you don't have anything else, I suppose you could use human waste, but there are better alternatives.

Well, there's 8 billion humans on the planet, so we gotta put it somewhere
