So having read all 17 pages of this, I will ressurect it to point out that Romans used urine from the public latrines in their laundries. So all you pee-ers could branch out and really make the most of your time in there and get you undies clean too. In fact why not just keep 'em on as you pee and shower?

p.s. don't tell the gubberment and give them any ideas, but urine had so many uses in Roman times that they actually taxed it.

I read a lot about the Romans. I'm re-reading a ficticious -but well researched- (and also humourous) series based in everyday Ancient Rome and it's scary how many parallels I can draw (using my outsiders perception) with everyday modern American life and politics. I expect a urine tax any minute.... oh wait, I think someone's taking the piss already..... :p
