Any time I have a particularly solemn audience i find suggesting this  
is a real ice breaker coming up to question and answer sessions.  
People are always amazed to hear the urine is pretty near sterile and  
therefore a very safe nitrogen source. I have all our male staff  
trained to pee on the compost heap when there aren't any visitors in  
the garden. They normally check for hovering females before they head  
in that direction and if we see a man heading towards to compost heap  
without a wheelbarrow we stay clear
