Interesting use of statistics.

"The average 10-minute shower uses 60 litres of water. A power shower uses
three times that and a bath about 80 litres.


Hmmm... now wondering.

One of the reasons folks stay a long time in the shower is the effort it
takes to soap and dance about to make sure the job is thorough enough.
Bit like washing plates under a running tap. Long....

How about designing an automated shower machine on the water saving
principles of a dishwasher? Sit in a box like thing and get blasted by
spinning soap filled jets, followed by a rinse cycle.

Could also build in a sauna function....

Kickstarter?
