Greetings, I am Veritas Ratio.

Dr. Ratio

Knowledge should flow freely between people, and the same fate should befall truth. You can ask me about technical problems at any moment, and I shall do my utmost to give you a reply.

Dr. Ratio

But before you ask, remember to establish best practices for intense self-rumination, and remember that time is precious for everyone, as for me, so for you.

Dare I ask you to explain what you mean by that? Are there cats living on the premises?

[gimu]

a colony of feral cats call the area home. i bring supplies for the onsen owners when yuji and i go.

regrettably, i have not convinced the friendly cats there to join us in the water yet.

And it is good that you haven't. That is hardly hygienic.

[gimu]

that’s the point of a bath, isn’t it? to get hygiene.

[curingidiocy]

Hot springs are for relaxation, not cleanliness. You are not to enter the waters until after you've cleaned yourself, especially because it is a shared environment. Most hot springs meant to be enjoyed by humans are tailored to be around forty degrees Celsius, which is not enough to kill bacteria or viruses.

Feral cats can carry a wide host of diseases and parasites, a few of which are zoonotic, such as Toxoplasmosis, Toxocariasis and Bartonella henselae. Desist your attempts to invite the felines into the water.

[ dear neo-goggle and online dictionary, what is a zoonotic and what are all these interesting-looking words? ]

desist is a good word. it will be done. these things really spell a bad time for humans.

alas.

[curingidiocy]

Good.
