    Sooo, you like wine and are looking for something good to read? Maybe *this* will do the trick! :)

    Thanks Amata! As Antonius states, that is one SUBstantial urinal.

    And here's for all you Chicagoans who haven't had a chance to see what I saw whilst growing up in Cally-forn-ya.

    Also:
    Well, you can imagine my surprise when I went through the door and found a towering Copper Trough Urinal complete with waterwheel!!


    Why don't we have one of these at Wrigley Field?

    I was out tonight and so missed this landmark telecast. I do hope someone will post it to Youtube, Vimeo or such like site.

    Great segment, Mike! I thought it was a lot of fun and very well-produced. I loved how they visually 'protected' your anonymity throughout the piece. Also, I'm kind of, forgive the pun, pissed that in some venues, the women's bathrooms are so superior to the men's bathrooms. What's up with that?! It kinda reminded me of that old SNL skit where the ladies room had harp-playing uenechs, etc.

    Great job!

    Hammond,

    Your wish is WTTW's command

    Fun to watch, well with a revisit, interesting how the lavatory fish tank at L20, set up by the Shedd Aquarium, contains no fish.

    Enjoy,

    Thanks for posting the link, GWiv, confirming what I suspected all along: that women's bathrooms are more cool, thus more popular, thus the long lines at the door of theirs and not at the doors of our sad and dingy spaces.

    Interesting point about the "deprivation chamber" aspects of Mercat's loo.
