A number of years ago, I was flying home to the UK from Hollywood 
International Airport, Fort Lauderdale.  The seats on the public 
toilets there were all covered with clear plactic.  Some sort weight 
or motion sensor was attached to the seat, because as soon as I stood 
up, there was a whirring noise as a machine automaically  removed ad 
disposed of the  the seat cover I had used at the same time replacing 
it with a clean one from a roll at the side of the toilet.  I marveled 
at this curious piece of hygenic engineering.
