Please don't click on the link until you think it out fer yourselves! More fun that way, and revealing too!

| 1254789 | 2012-01-18 00:18:00 | Way off the mark. The Cities sewage system is far more important than a flusher (as even mentioned in the article) |

| 1254790 | 2012-01-18 00:35:00 | Indeed, without a proper disposal system the flush toilet is the fast lane to all that it claimed to save with tonnes of sewerage just getting piled up in one place. | The Error Guy (14052) | ||
| 1254791 | 2012-01-18 00:50:00 | The sewerage system is only important to those who don't live at the top of the hill. | R2x1 (4628) | ||
| 1254792 | 2012-01-18 00:52:00 | The sewerage system is only important to those who don't live at the top of the hill. Or on the top floor of a building, just imagine flinging your waste from 50 floors up would make an awesome splat |

| 1254793 | 2012-01-18 01:30:00 | I thought the watch or a mechanical time device, since people often need the time or some reference to it. The article reminds of the Mel Brooks while back where in Victorian times they had a "water boy" carrying a pail around for men to relieve themselves. | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 1254794 | 2012-01-18 01:35:00 | Definately one of the great inventions, the fanciest sewerage system in the world wouldn't be very nice if we connected to it with a straight hole in the floor. I suspect the greatest invention would be something really simple though, for example clothes. We can't survive naked anywhere outside the tropics if I remember correctly. We can survive with a bucket or a longdrop if necessary (ask christchurch residents). Other candidates off the top of my head,um... Cooked food The humble wheel Indoor plumbing in general Shoes Condoms (sorry had to) the knife etc |
