Geee Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Investors Business Daily: Next time you're enjoying a hot shower, don't. The Obama administration's Environmental Protection Agency is preparing to crack down on shower sneaks. You know who you are. You're the type of selfish person who steps into a hotel shower and lingers too long. Maybe you're trying to get clean. Maybe you're shaving. Maybe you enjoy the sensory blast of instant hot water on your skin that isn't going on a home water-heater bill. The EPA doesn't care about such frivolous things. Its concern is the amount of water you are "wasting." Whatever it is, it's too much. So, the agency has issued a grant to the University of Tulsa to develop a shower water usage monitor by Aug. 14. Assuming market support, one would be installed on every hotel room's shower head to measure water consumption and radio it somewhere. Perhaps the yet-to-be-developed gizmo could shut off water after a specified time; never mind if you're still soapy. You're wasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
