Well, how about this: Some varieties of high end porta-johns here in the States, like they have at equestrian events and the hunt clubs, alert the occupant with a buzzer and flashing lights inside and on the roof if anything alive is detected in the tank. It's supposed to be a child and small animal safety mechanism. The system works by detecting and analyzing wave motion with a series of sensors in the tank.
Had the facilities in this story been equipped with such a system, the man would have been alerted to the presence of the snake and could have made a decision if he was going to risk it or not. There would have been no sneaky snake attack on his sack, it would have been consensual and all made possible with IT.

I thought that the employment of children and animals to do dirty jobs in confined spaces was a thing of Victorian times, and had no idea it still happened in the good 'ol US of A!
But still, I guess it must be a lot cheaper to send children in to clean the tanks out than to buy all that expensive industrial flushing and vacuuming equipment.

By any chance, was this porta-loo on the banks of the great grey-green, greasy Limpopo River, all set about with fever-trees, O Best Beloved?
