Bio-Toilet Bull

Bio-toilets are being created to the tune of $70,000 a piece when people are starving in other countries.

There was even a Bio-Toilet Convention and now one of the expensive cedar latrines has been placed on Mt.Rainier:

"Mount Rainier National Park is offering visitors a cleaner and eco-friendlier way to do their business with a specially-designed biotoilet.

Instead of using chemicals, the commode uses cedar chips to treat the waste. The heat generated during decomposition kills any bacteria, and waste materials are vaporized in one of its tanks.

The inventor of the new-age john came all the way from Japan for the dedication ceremony on Monday.

The toilet was a gift to Mount Rainier from Groundwork Mishima, a Japanese environmental group that is active on Mount Fuji. Mount Fuji has a "Sister Mountain" relationship with Mount Rainier.

Rainier is the first in the country to have the biotoilet, which is priced at $70,000."

What will people "waste" their time on next?
