| 'Father of Potty Parity' calls 5,000 johns 'inadequate' January 13, 2009 - 10:29am
WASHINGTON - The masses heading to the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama could spend a lot of time in line for a port-a-potty. A George Washington University law professor says the 5,000 port-o-potties planned for Inauguration Day will be "grossly inadequate."
Professor John Banzhaf, the so-called "Father of Potty Parity" sent a letter to the Presidential Inaugural Committee warning of potential lawsuits.
He says women, who take longer in the restroom, could be forced to wait in longer lines than men, and that amounts to discrimination.
Banzhaf says waiting in long lines is not just an inconvenience. It can trigger medical problems. He's asking the Presidential Inaugural Committee to make the toilets gender-neutral so that women do not have to wait longer than men.

| Didn't mean to step on your toes. I usually abstain from the potty humor, but this one hit close to home as I spent a significant portion of my formative years on line for the crapper at various events in our nations capital.
I went 4 years running in the early 90's drunk, watching 4th of July fireworks in line for a port-a-crapper. | |
