DELRAY BEACH, Fla. -- Alan Brill wants to keep those nasty public potty germs away from your behind.

He has invented a high-tech toilet seat that includes an automatic plastic sleeve. It's sort of like a condom for safe sitting.

Brill said the user just has to wave a hand in front of a sensor and a fresh layer of plastic covers the commode seat.

The Florida entrepreneur said his toilet seats are already installed in a number of upscale businesses. He told the Palm Beach Post that a public bathroom is like the United Nations of germs.

Why would anybody want to put their private parts there, he asked.

2. Has anyone ever gotten a disease from a toilet seat?

Or is the market for these products driven by an anxiety not supported by reality.

3. a little old

a restaurant in Tampa in the 80s had a self cleaning toilet seat. When a person got off it, the seat would flip up and go into a unit to clean it and them popped back down in normal position. Everybody that knew about this seat, always had to "go" just to watch it work.

I can't remember what airport, but some airport i've been to has them.
