Every invention of modern man pales in comparison to plumbing...
When you don't have it anyway. No water. I don't mind not having it when it comes to fun outdoor things like camping. Its a good trade. Not when your stuck in your house with 2 other people who are as unshowered as you. Once again I was a bit jealous of the male species' ability to pee standing up. Damn did that shower feel good though once they fixed the well pump.
