   What does your grass look like near the finger system?   
      
   Ask the septic tank cleaner next time he comes if he saw anything, or if   
   he knows anything about this.  Better yet, call the company now and ask   
   them.  They won't charge extra if you make this admission, will they?   
   Maybe call from a pay phone so they won't know it's you.
