Pre-Order a New Book! We are proud that our friend Chelsea Wald wrote a book about the future of toilets! We took a sneak peek and we think you'll like it, especially if you're keen on repurposing what we flush for something more useful. The book - Pipe Dreams - comes out in early April. We already pre-ordered it because we're really excited! (We are not sponsored to post this - we just really like the book.) | | |
