Haha, yeah I just say "I dunno the small one? What's the small one called?" It really annoys my wife.

Unfortunately the crater is under a glacier at the moment so it wouldn't be so simple as walking your chosen offering to the caldera rim and giving it a hip check.

People's Temple (the Jonestown folks) moved to ~~Guatemala~~ Guyana. There's also Colonia Dignidad in Chile and Joao de Dios in Brazil, although he's homegrown. Then there's all the Mennonites currently setting up farming communes in the Amazon.

Wilcox et al were working in a hospital setting and just found that the air bacterial counts were higher around hand dryers than around paper towel dispensers, which doesn't establish whether the hand dryers are actually a source of bacteria. A more recent meta-analysis found mixed outcomes. So both the sign and the graffito need to revise and resubmit, ideally with a more comprehensive survey of the published literature.

Given that Psilocybe mushrooms are coprophiles (typically found growing in manure or pastures where manure is abundant), it's unlikely that they mind being eaten.
