You know, I feel really disturbed about posting this, it looks so corny.
However, this is a genuine enquiry: I've exhausted all the sources of
information I have available, and drawn blanks in each.

It all stems from a BBC radio program I heard a few years ago.  I'm SURE
that I remember hearin a contributor (it was a wild-life program) state
that wombat droppings were quadrilateral in cross-section.  I dismissed
this when I heard it - really, it does seem corny, doesn't it? - but,
over the years, a nagging doubt has remained in my mind.

Is this true, O ye knowledgeable?  And, if so, why?  How DO those
sphincter muscles work? 

I REALLY HAVE TRIED TO FIND THIS OUT.  Please don't flame me too hard,
this is a genuine enquiry.  Any help very gratefully received.

					Kay.
