about sealed up when I noticed this thing float­
ing around inthe spacecraft. I had to push
it back down in there.
When I cut it, I got the stuff on me and a little
bit around.
The two that I broke, that were
contained inside the plastic bag, seemed to work
all r i ght .
On the whole I was satisfactorily
pleased with the defecation bags.
I felt also
that the liquid was easy to work into it. I
think that ' s a satisfactory system.
You really have that knack of kneeing.
One thing, it is just like oleomargarine was -­
. Ha, ha!
A little different in coloL Ha, ha!
One thing t hat I want to comment on was the toilet
paper with the darn wax job. I did not think the
toilet paper was satisfactory. It had a waxy
back so that it was like the back side of a Sears
Roebuck Catalog.
That was not the side you were supposed to use.
I know it but the other side had such a small
amount of absorbency.
This is why you always used
so
darn much paper Jim McDivit~
Ha , ha!
