EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW- Well, I read somewhere that urine is cleaner than the inside of a person's mouth! So I guess it wouldn't be too bad. But I will NOT volunteer! Oh no.

Good idea. After all, only a rocket scientist could understand what the heck is going on in those books.

It would be purified! and people have drank their own urine to survive; example of this is on that movie about the plane crash on the mountains :D
