Belfast yet again strides the global stage

[sombrefan]

We're hosting a world summit about toilets? *shakes head in despair* No one will take us seriously after this.

BBC News article about this event

And according to one of the organisers:

"We are very confident that this global event will be truly memorable for all who attend."

Why? What are you planning to do? 30 years of the Troubles and our reward from the peace dividend is a bloody toliet conference?

Toilets are very important. After three weeks in Canada I went to the toilet at Zaventem airport (Brussels) this morning and it was really a "good to be home"-experience: the doors on the toilet stalls don't have these openings on the top and the bottom and the toilets flush in a "normal" fashion. (Just an odd thing I noticed: Northern American toilets flush differently. Didn't know that.)
