This reminds me of the public, pay toilets in Italy. It only dispenses
toilet paper by pushing a button, which in turn, gives you eight squares
of paper. It would be quite a predicament if there were a loss of power
somewhere in the time of "finishing the job" and pressing the button.

Since we are discussing toilets, whenever I get a computer case with a
"Designed for Windoze whatever," sticker on it, I peel it off and stick
it on the tank of the nearest toilet I can find. So if you are in
Sarasota and see that little label on a porcelain throne, that was
probably me! Heh.
