The tile under the urinals in the [JFK's] 'Arrivals' Building has that
familiar lemony tinge; rubber soles stick to it.
Over in Amsterdam, the tile under Schiphol [Airport]'s urinals would pass
inspection in an operating room. But nobody notices.
What everybody does notice is that each urinal has a fly in it. Look harder,
and the fly turns into the black outline of a fly, etched into the porcelain.
"It improves the aim," says [Schiphol economist] Aad Kieboom. "If a man sees
a fly, he aims at it." His staff conducted fly-in-urinal trials and found
that etchings reduce spillage by 80%. The Dutch will transfer the technology
to New York.
