Other Crap's version of Cinco de Mayo: Today is World Toilet Day

"19 November was declared 'World Toilet Day' in 2001 by 17 toilet associations around the world. Since then there has been established an annual World Toilet Summit and many other regional conferences. Each toilet association has also engaged in many activities promoting clean toilets in their own respective country. Since 2001, World Toilet Day has become a global platform for academics, sanitation experts, toilet designers, environmentalists etc. to share the latest on rural and urban toilets."

BUT ... there are about 200 nations in the world, so about 180 national toilet associations have NOT declared this to be world toilet day. By my reckoning, that makes the other 17 ... rogue toilet states!

I suppose the remaining 180 countries may not all be opposed to celebrating World Toilet Day. There may be some countries too poor to be able to afford a toilet association. What a tragedy that some countries could be that indigent while others are ... er ... flush with prosperity.

And then Canada doesn't need a toilet association, because they have Mr. Floatie ever vigilant.
