CRITIC HANDS OUT ‘GOLDEN PLUNGERS’ TO TOP TOILETS



LYNCHBURG, Va. (Wireless Flash) – Movies have their Oscars – now public rest rooms have their own award: “The Golden Plungers.” Can critic Mary Ann Racin, who publishes loo reviews from around the world at thebathroomdiaries.com, is the person behind the new awards. Racin has flushed out the top toilets in the world and this year she’s giving top marks to a rest room in New Zealand which features glass spirals and a grass roof. The loo is so luxurious it has become a tourist attraction in its own right. Other Golden Plunger winners include an automated talking toilet in San Francisco that cleans itself, an Indonesian potty which sits in the middle of a koi pond and a public can in Hong Kong that features a 260-degree, wide- angle view of the city.
