Prison toilets are stainless steel but must cost many times the price
of porcelain and be less stylish.


They include a sink, drinking fountain and paper holder. All in one
piece. *They do not crack or break. *When broken away from the wall,
during a "fit", they can be reattached at less cost by using the same
unit.

How about a combination toilet and washing machine, which uses the grey
water from the washing machine to flush the toilet:

Not sure I want grey water in the bowl and get splashback..


harry would connect it the other way to avoid that problem.


And probably use it to wash his toothbrush...if he uses one.
