dry toilet Explanation: It is used when events (exhibitions, etc.) are mounted in the country were there is no sewer. Here in Argentina, it´s called "baño químico" (in Spanish). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day1 hr (2008-03-15 16:04:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I was looking for some toilet history... hahaha... Although nowadays there are vaccum/chemical toilets in planes, (see: http://travel.howstuffworks.com/question314.htm), I found that there were no toilets on planes in WWII (at least in militar planes). They had "relief tubes" in which they could urinate, but at high altitudes, they seem to be frozen... |
