Bidets: a public concern

An Australian bidet

I feel I should start this post with a clarification: I am not fascinated by toilets. I realise that I could stand accused of this, having so far posted items about the Chinese man who stored more than US$3 million in a leaking toilet, the Japanese man who invented a soundless toilet and the sweeping southern Indian public toilet construction program, but that doesn't mean I am obsessed with toilets. No way. Absolutely not.


Just to prove it, today's post is about bidets. It has been reported that a Californian man has invented a coin-operated one, designed to be used in public restrooms. I don't know about you, but every time I come out of one of those public toilet cubicles, I curse the lack of a bidet.

The inventor, Hyug Park, says his design includes a warm air blower. I'm copying this to my local municipal decision makers and then I'm starting a We Need Public Bidets campaign.

Who's with me?
