It just so happens that Tom L. began such a discussion that lasted the
entire ride back to Hackistan/Stanza. Here's the link to his blog on the
subject of hover peeing: http://thomaslevine.com/!/hovering-cycle/
It's actually not such a gendered thing. Women can pee standing up as well,
and many do. It's actually much neater than hover peeing, which is a blight
on toilets everywhere. However, it is a power best used outdoors. The
toilets at the Omni are made for sitting, and people of all genders can do
so. I too pledge not to stand or hover.

BTW, what's the story on the urinals in the head in the hallway to the
sudoroom? One of them was operational, but I notice they are all cordoned
off now. Do we need funds to fix them or are they destined for the
knackers?

Subject: [sudo-discuss] I'm going to pee sitting down at the omni: A

Please excuse the unusual nature of this email and take me seriously for a
moment.
I have started the practice of sitting down to pee at the Omni, which is
not something I do anywhere else in my life. Before I continue, you may
well be wondering if I am assuming that my readership are the owners of
"hoses" as Arnas called them . "No" is the answer, but of course if
you
already urinate while sitting then perhaps this call to action is less
germane.
Here is my reasoning:
1. I Care about bathroom cleanliness at the Omni.
2. After close inspection, and many trials, even with the utmost care I
cannot urinate standing up in a way that gets all my urine securely in the
bowl without splashing a very small amount.
3. In my experiments peeing sitting down is almost fail-safe at getting all
my urine in the toilet bowl.
4. I have the option to sit down to pee.
Since there are two options, and one is superior from a cleanliness point
of view - albeit slightly more labour intensive - and since cleaning will
be done in solidarity by one of our members; I therefore am pledging to sit
down to pee at the Omni.
I hope you will take this position
