I feel so much better. My urine is a nutrient for rancid clams.

Now, science gal, do turds surf?

The average humans urine is 95% water?

Yeah as opposed to your average Volcan.

Did someone more stupid than this ditzy cunt ask her an equally ditzy question?

As opposed to your average camel.

A camel’s kidneys are the most efficient on earth. Very little moisture is lost in camel urine. Camel urine can be as thick as syrup and have twice the salt content of sea water, and a camel’s fecal pellets are dry enough to burn immediately upon voiding.

There are many other species on this planets besides Homo sapiens.

As they say, the dose makes the poison. One person peeing in the ocean is OK. But what will 7 billion people peeing in the ocean do?

I think a large fraction of those 7B people ALREADY are peeing in the ocean. Ever since the prevalence of the modern sewer system. So, yeah, everybody just keep calm and carry on.

The oceans have a powerful cleansing effect.
Hey, fish pee in the ocean.

I thought humans were 99% water. How do they get urine being 95% water.

70%

Statistical facts, not the strong point of conservatives.

Human Body May Be 99% Water Reports Water Researcher Gerald Pollack, PhD

Human Body May Be 99% Water Reports Water Researcher Gerald Pollack, PhD

Do you actually read the articles you reference?

The previous 60 to 70 percent estimate of the human body’s water content, according to Pollack, was based on the volume of water contained in the body as a percentage of the body’s total volume. Pollack made his revised estimate based on the percentage of individual water molecules in the body, compared to the total number of molecules. By the molecule method of calculation, the human body’s water percentage becomes a whopping 99%.

Measuring by volume is somewhat meaningful. Measuring by mass is even more so. I don't see how particularly useful counting individual molecules are, but it certainly isn't what most people mean when they measure composition. If you mean that, you should explicitly state that you are counting molecules as oppose to mass. And certainly the stats of human urine isn't based on molecule counts.

The problem with molecule counts is how exactly do you count molecules when atoms are loosely coupled? Depending on how you count, a cell membrane may have millions of molecules or just one.

What about weight? When you cremate a body all that is left are ashes that don't weigh much.

Strategist says

What about weight?

Measuring by mass is equivalent to measuring by weight. Fg = G m1 * m2 / r^2

Strategist says

When you cremate a body all that is left are ashes that don't weigh much.

When you cremate a body, you drastically change the chemical composition of the remains and evaporate water and other substances. In effect, your measuring completely different things before and after cremation.

OK, I'll go with your explanation.

But is it okay to comment on Patrick.net ?
