You'll Flush and You'll Like It (II)

We all know city politics is notoriously corrupt, but damn this is pretty incredible. Remember the waterless urinal saga in Philly? Well, it's been resolved but check out these key graphs from the Inquirer:

A waterless-urinals agreement is in the can, and that means that the Comcast Center will be able to install the environmentally friendly basins in its new headquarters, a spokesman for Mayor Street announced last night ...

Liberty, however, was forced to accept a long list of conditions to open the way for the green devices. Most significantly, it agreed to install standard water lines with the urinals, although they are unnecessary and will not be connected. The plumbers contend this is a backup measure, in case the urinals don't work

And I thought New York had the most retarded real estate scene. Who knew, the plumbers are only worried about the developer's best interests. Unreal!
