- and depending on the condition of the pipes, I'd be weary. Call a plumber to roto it out (faster anyway) -- nm - zork Apr 24, 09:20 7
  - it might not be an animal but a break in the pipe and *sewage* could be leaking -- nm - zork Apr 24, 09:26 6
    - we're pretty sure it's something dead. it's got that real dead-animal-in-the-wall smell - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 24, 09:28 4

- no, it would kill Lochness. -- nm - CrankYanker Apr 24, 09:14
- *be* putting... -- nm - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 24, 09:12
