Thanks Tom,
yes we do have a composter specifically for that purpose. it is a drum made 
by I think SunMar, we use the macerator to pump it in with. mixed with peat 
moss in certain amount, composted, dryed and processed with a blower and a 
heating element and then processed in a staging bin. the composter cost 
about $1000 and will accomadate up to 6 people full time. you would think we 
would have compost running out of our ears, but with 2 adults and 2 kids we 
produce about 1.5 gallons of dry crumbly not too smelly fertilizer a month. 
the drum was meant to be installed in a home or cabin but easily adapted to 
our system with the help of our macerator. althought we will have to have a 
septic when our house is built the composter is making our life so much 
easier now that we don't have to haul 40 gallons of liquid poop in our jiffy 
blue holding tank 15 miles to the nearest RV park. plus those slinkys always 
sprouted holes and we ended up wiht raw sewage on the ground at some point 
in varying amounts. one time when dumping with the slinky into the blue 
thing it was cold and I guess the slinky was brittle as a result and it 
split, shooting copious amounts of waste until I  was able to get to the 
shut off valve to the black water tank. I SCREAMED it was UGLY I was FOUL 
for a WEEK!!!!!!I decided that was enough! I just could not do that for 2 
years while building my house and deciding the placement for the septic. So 
there is the FULL story and surely more than anyone EVER wanted to know.
