Who Put The Toil In Toilets?

by kphirst

Every woman has waited in line to use a toilet and every man has
waited for a woman who is waiting in line. Because the designers
of a new arena at St. Louis University knew that, they installed
more ceramic commodes for women, unintentionally breaking the
law. Missouri is one of the states that requires an equal number
of porcelain facilities for both men and women. Nevertheless,
because it takes women longer to use these facilities, there are
times women can't take equality sitting down.

New York City's Mayor Bloomberg understands that and recently
signed the Women's Restroom Equity Act. The goal of this act if
to bring public restroom parity to sports arenas, bars, movie
theaters and other entertainment venues. This act mandates that
those places have two women's bathroom stalls for every one that
is allotted to men. Now this is a double standard women can stand
behind - well, stand in front of.

The Travel Center at mile marker #77 on Interstate 75 in rural
Kentucky has literally become a place to go. The building's
limestone and cherry wood interior houses art galleries, shops, a
cafe and a grill, as well as immaculately clean and ultra modern
restrooms. There are even pots of fresh flowers by the sinks. Who
would have thought a rest stop would be a place people would want
to stop and smell the roses.

Who would have thought automatic-flushing toilets would pose a
problem for potty training. Because children are too short to
block the sensor, the porcelain potties scare children by
flushing while the children are sitting on them. According to the
author of "The Potty Training Answer Book", parents should help
their children face their fear of the whooshing, white monster.
Jeffrey Kay, however, the father of a potty princess, decided to
slay the monster. He invented the "Flush Stopper", which adheres
to the back of a toilet and blocks the sensor's beam. Leave it to
a dad to have a stand-up solution for the problem.

One solution for the problem of water conservation was the
mandating of low-flush toilets, which began in 1992. Today
switching to water-efficient water closets can save the average
family as much as $100 a year and the savings on a national level
are estimated to be $11.3 million a day. Isn't it good to know
that in a down economy toilets can help us stay flush?
