On the recent subject of toilets....

[forwards deleted]


	"You cannot believe the savagery with which people attack 
	toilets.  They break the plumbing, they smash them.  They 
	go wild. I can see how people might injure schools or places 
	where they've had difficulties, but I do not see how anyone 
	can bear a grudge against a toilet."
		- Henry J. Stern,
		  Parks Commissioner of New York City, quoted in the New York Times


	New York City opened a new public toilet complex - two stalls
	for women and two stalls and a urinal for men - designed to 
	withstand any imaginable aggression, with prison-grade door
	locks and stainless-steel everything.
