@Simon: I think the tunnels in the sewer systems out there are large enough for people to walk through upright, even sometimes operate from, the reason we have the phrase "the underworld", I doubt the installers there will be soiling themselves; not the same thing here. :(

Ngugi,

I believe what flows in the Nairobi sewerage network is the same as what flows in London, Paris, and even New York sewerage systems. But I stand to be corrected.

I'm sure these companies will start a blame game yet again!

Man is a gregarious animal and enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way to the side of a hill!

AND

It is better to die in dignity than in the ignomity of ambiguous generosity!
