Surprised no one is talking about this. Thanks for the link.

Another product making big claims with no research backing. Nothing more than a slight comfort thing.

I worked at a multinational company in Malaysia and they covered all the bases in a single washroom: toilet with TP, toilet with hose, hole with hose, hole with TP. I had to wait for the right combo to be free

So does Robin. I believe it was Robin that told Howard about it. She was the first to use it.

Japanese airport bathrooms are like that, from the simplist squat toilet up to the Toilet Of The Future



I miss those toilets, they make the standard ones in North America look barbaric in comparison. My ass felt like royalty after dropping a deuce in one
