Truly a troublesome situation, considering that many people have their
best creative ideas in the bathroom.  And think of the depressions this
dark bathroom will foster!  A study that correlates depressing bathrooms
with amok-runners should be undertaken.  Someone should start a group
"Architects Against Amok-Runner Generating Housing (AAARGH)" !
