Apparently these talking urinals have been circulating in select areas for some time, but rather than the idea just going down the drain, it seems to have gained attention. The Wizmark Urinal Communicator sits at the bottom of men's urinals and sports a miniature LCD screen and a speaker to broadcast all kinds of messages, alerts, and advertisements to the, um, current user. The waterproof drain cover also acts as a deodorizer, and presumably continues to play even when purposely blasted by those who feel their privacy has been breached. Similar to automatic flushers, the device senses an approaching patron from about 30cm away and queues up a programmed message to play upon his (or her) arrival. The most common uses thus far are to warn patrons not to drive while intoxicated, but we assume this will eventually become another bizarre advertising medium. The mastermind of the Wizmark, Dr. Richard Deutsch, asserts that the uses are limitless, as everything from public service announcements to beer commercials could find their way in your stall. So on your next visit to the gentleman's room, we'd strongly recommend keeping your eyes aimed directly ahead, no matter what interesting things your neighbor's Wizmark might be saying.

Imagine having a bad day at work, going home and the missus is giving you earache, so you slip off down to the local pub........................... a few pints later ( well one if your me !) you go to the loo. A row of urinals face you, a bloke on each one taking a leak................and all you can hear are voices talking at different levels coming out of the gadgets..........nagging...........horrible noise.............it would drive you CRAZY !! I would rather stay home, wee on the toilet seat and have one voice telling me off for making a mess !!!
