If I made bricks out of all the poop I've ever pooped out in US standard size (203mm × 92mm × 57 mm) and laid them in a one-brick thick wall roughly a meter high, how long would that wall be?

Moon = showing your naked butt at authority as a sign of disrespect.  Like in ME, throwing your shoes at them.

If history repeats ... then what is the precedent for the current US situation?

English civil war ... legislature overthrew the executive, and ended with corruption and replacement with a Dominionist (aka Oliver Cromwell) and military dictatorship.

I don't give high priority to microbes.

If they're a separate form of life, then I do.  Where else are we going to have an example of life other than ours to study?  Even the simplest sort of microbe, if it's a separate kind of life from Earthly forms, completely deprovincializes biology.  I don't think that means we leave Mars entirely alone, but I do think it means we proceed with extreme care for the maintenance and preservation of any native life, however humble.  In a sense, it's their planet.
