ATLANTA, Nov. 27, 2012 – Throughout the years, Japan has remained a worldwide leader in technological and engineering innovations. However, a recent article from CNN suggests that Japan’s latest efforts in research and development are “a depressing reminder of what wasted talent can produce.” One such “depressing” product mentioned in the article is a new toilet offered by “high-tech lavatory maker Toto.” It is described as “a new washroom model that is inexplicably capable of shooting a soccer ball at 160 kilometers-per-hour.” As part of a company that inspects, repairs and replaces thousands of toilets each year, Roto-Rooter Atlanta discusses whether or not toilet designs are a waste of talent and time.

In a recent press statement, Roto-Rooter Atlanta comments, “While items like high-speed toilets may not prove valuable to the average consumer, it is impressive that such feats are possible. In the technology and engineering market, there are currently many patent disputes, showcasing a lack of originality. Although Toto’s high-speed toilet is not likely to become a Roto-Rooter Atlanta customer favorite, the new developments discovered by the company’s engineers may help contribute to more progressive designs in plumbing and other areas of engineering.”
