Africa's Flying Toilets "Open defecation is widespread, and flying toilets, where people defecate in plastic bags and throw them away at night are the rule rather than the exception in many informal settlements. This is the way we live. We do not have toilets, and no place to safely dispose of our waste, said Nicholas Ambeyo. Because of this, and the lack of sufficient water, and the open sewers that run through our houses, we are at a risk of contracting diseases."

``More than 80 years later, access to basic sanitation remains out of reach for 546 million people in sub-Saharan Africa.
Can we please just get the Africans hooked on smoking? It would generate wealth for North America as well as helping to control the population of Africa. These folks seem to give less thought to reproducing than the stray cats behind my building do.
