Water saving tip from the BBC

[JulieM]

Since the Thai authorities are expecting a water shortage this year I thought I should share this article.

You need to give people some idea what the link is linked to.

Given the stereotypical personal hygiene reputation of a certain nationality that earned them the sobriquet, "soap-dodgers," I wonder how many of the 15,000 students bother to take a morning shower or a shower at any time of the day. And since presumably any given shower would be used by several students during the day, knowing that everyone else had been peeing in the shower would probably reduce the number even more.

Basically they're asking people to to urinate in a public shower, or put the other way 'round, bathe in a public urinal. I wonder what the admissions requirements are for the University of East Anglia.

University students are being urged to urinate in the shower in a bid to save water.

The Go with the Flow campaign is the brainchild of students Debs Torr and Chris Dobson, from the University of East Anglia (UEA) in Norwich.

They want the university's 15,000 students to take their first wee of the day while having their morning shower.

Mr Dobson, 20, said the idea could "save enough water to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool 26 times"

with water or urine? Maybe they could just ask everyone to take an Olympic-sized pee in the pool.

Somewhere there are some really proud parents.
