1. I HATE those fucking things.
They flush when you walk up to them. They flush while you're taking a piss (and splash you). But they do NOT FUCKING flush when you walk away - the ONLY time they are SUPPOSED to flush. I'd like to kick the ass of whatever sadistic bastard came up with that damn valve.

Did I make myself clear on the matter?

2. Maybe it's more a matter of "your mileage may vary"
because the urinal ones work fine here, but it's the toilet ones that don't work. Luckily, there's a little button to push...

Maybe I should just make a thread called ZORN!!! :P

3. Oh, the fucking toilet ones never work. My wife hates them too.
But still, the urinal ones are just as useless. Give me a damn lever to pull. And please don't eat the little pink mints.

4. I'd like to see the waterless urinals used:
http://www.waterless.com

I've never seen one around here, but have read about them for a while (like on TreeHugger.com)

I remember when I was in New Zealand how they had a push-button in the top of the toilet tanks, and it was a split-button, for full and half-flushes. At the very least, they could do that in this country.

5. The best I've ever seen were the trough style enter/exit sheds.
I've used them at concerts. You enter from one side, cram in as close as you can with the other guys and try not to cross piss streams and then exit by the other side. VERY efficient! Beats the hell out of the Tardis things.

6. That only works for 2/3s of the populace.
The rest of us need full sensory-deprivation stalls :P

8. I'll have to think about that...
one hand has to hold the clothing, but it shouldn't matter which ;)
