Thanks, just trying to hold out some hope.

Anybody tried looking under microscope? Just curios to what we’ll see.

Ellen Ripley is our last hope. I am not concerned. She's got this.

before throwing mine out (improper disposal?), I let mine settle for a few days and pipetted some material from the bottom of my bottle and looked at it under up to 100x. I saw some fibers, and a couple small approximately spherical objects, but not much else. Fibers were probably from the paper seal inside of the cap I would imagine. As others have noted, when my scope slides dried, they were very sticky to the touch. Cyano is sticky because of the extracellular polysaccharides - but not like this stuff was. I saw no identifiable cells. I suppose the very small shpherical objects could have been cysts; just as likely they could have been dust from the room.

Ok. No word is word enough for me. This day shall forever be known as not-vibrant day. A day wich will live on in I am phony. We choose to do these things not because it it is bacteria but because it is easy.

Ah, yes, the immortal words of John Fitzdelano Roosevelt!

Just curious if the argumentative person who was removed from this thread felt the need to continue to argue with other people (who never even spoke to him in the first place) and sent you a DM about how he’s technically right about everything he claimed in this thread while arguing with Randy, like he did to me.

got banned from the thread so had to start arguing with people directly in DM.
Just pathetic

Ok so I just got a PM from "a member"... no joke still selling the narrative about circling drains.

Two questions:
1: Has anyone else recieved a PM from "a member"
2: Is it OK for me to post the message here?... asking for a friend...

Ok glad I’m not the only one he’s been DMing

Report the DM. That’s crazy! And honestly disturbing that it’s now more than one person who’s had it happen.

I reported it and then blocked him.
I’m not going to engage his temper tantrum

FWIW, I have written to UWC asking if they intend to respond.

Response will be delayed. Jeff (owner of UWC) intended to respond yesterday, but the EPA and Mn Department of Agriculture arrived at UWC yesterday for a "for cause" inspection. I am told they were there all day yesterday and plan to be there again today.

FWIW, I saw a picture of the first page of the official EPA notice as proof.
