If I am not mistaken, Oliver is making a literary allusion to the
long-handled mirror invented by the disaffected
surgeon-turned-environmental activist[1] character, whose name I don't
recall, in Edward Abbey's[2] amusing novel "The Monkey Wrench Gang" -
see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Monkey_Wrench_Gang

Said mirror was devised to enable one to inspect one's own anus.

Is that correct, Oliver?

[2] Edward Abbey died prematurely in 1989 from complications of
allegedly botched oesophageal surgery (which to be fair is not easy).
