- PhasmaFelis 7y agoOne commonly puts something else with a rich microbial ecosystem in it on a regular basis.
- balnaphone 7y agoYes. However, it's "something else", meaning that the ecosystem is dramatically different. Furthermore, the majority of that ecosystem should be evacuated on a regular basis. E.g. bury an apple in soil during humid warm weather, and a week later it may be substantially decomposed; float it in a regular toilet bowl and it will recognizably still be an apple.
