This is not something that will affect those of our female audience, but more and more mens rooms are installing 'waterless' urinals. For example, today i took the opportunity to use the toilets in the p building (could actually be k... but who knows) of the UWS kingswood campus. First of all i was suprised that our strapped-for-cash uni wasted an enormous amount of money turning the otherwise mediocre mens room into a lavitorial wonderland - although it is possibly the most used loo's in the place so they would be the ones to update. Having recovered from the little bit of vomit  in my throat, i proceeded over to the new shiny porceline urinals. So white and shiny. Immediately i realised that they had joined the ranks or waterless - flush free toilets! As if Penrith Westfield wasn't enough!

Obviously, after a lifetime of flushing, suddenly not flushing is extremely wierd. However i take my hat off to the genius who devised this genious system, that is, if it is truely hygenic. Ones mind wonders just how it can stay clean without water. I suppose we dont lick it, so regular cleaning would most likely suffice anyway, given the angles involved etc.

Nevertheless, this new wave of loo innovation is inspiring and deeply disturbing all at once.
