You've obviously never been in a public toilet in Japan, particularly at 
night. If you had, you'd know what happens when men try to pee into a 
hole several feet away while drunk. And I've seen other more 'hygenic' 
misses.

Interesting. I'm the other way. If it looks dirty I might put toilet 
paper around it (Japan doesn't seem to have many of the sanitary covers 
that are everywhere in the US). But I can't seem to keep my britches 
from touching the floor.
