Yes, sir, I sure want my toilet to decide that I need more roughage. 
 The page describes a toilet with automated stool and urine 
analysis, which communicates over the net to a doctor or even a 
grocery store.  Not much of a stretch to envision a remotely 
upgradeable system that can be instructed to run drug screens or 
collect DNA.

Sure glad this is just a prototype.
