Killing two birds with one stone

So is this the greatest idea ever ?  Well, maybe not the greatest idea
EVER but pretty darn convenient.  I was in the Louvre yesterday and
had to use the restroom.  Part of the sink was the faucet, of course,
and then there was another fixture attached to the counter top.  If
you look closely you will see that it is a water fountain.  I have
never seen this before but it is such a clever idea.  First of all,
convenient because it is all in one place.  I also think it is great
for the environment.  If lots of places had this feature there would
be less need to wander around with a plastic bottle of water.  Saving
money and more importantly, there would be a lot more space in our
landfills..

  1. I feel it's not the most hygienic location for a drinking fountain, but still kinda clever...
