25%".
The whole class fell on the floor laughing and even the teacher had to laugh.
(BTW this was well before PC got such a strong grip on the country)

And the class clown is now working in Government??

(visualizing) Two guys facing eachother down in the street. One or two "friends of the combatants" positioning themself to "assist".
One little shoot out resulting in thousands in fines for damages (all those ricochets, broken windows, spoiled trade goods). And then when you add in the "distress" damages for the people having to get off the street, restraint of trade suits resulting from preventing potential customers from getting to the front door of the General Store or Tavern because of the battle in the street. And that's even before you throw in the violations of noise ordinances, public safety regs, and the incidental attempted murder.

Don't forget the lawsuits resulting in the "loss of revenue" because the shootouts give the town a bad name!! and all law abiding peoples stay away!!

I believe that the actual requirement is that sit down eating establishments must provide the means to wash your hands but I have not found a citation for that. I am certain that the park restrooms qualify for the restaurants.

You also have to remember that A lot of those "regulations" enacted sometimes include "grandfather " clauses that help establishments and businesses that were constructed prior to the enactment, and places of HISTORICAL signifiance. (Disneyland??)

And the requirement for a place to wash hands is for the entire establishment, which you could make a case for is the entire park! Alternatively the requirement may state a max distance, but there is no requirement that the customer does not have to go outside to get there. So As long as a restroom or hand washing station is within a certain radius of the counter (which at the parks is fairly likely) everything is fine. And some of those regulations about access to restroom and hand washing is specific to the workers, not the customers. So if the staff have access to a restroom backstage those requirements are covered.

Okay, not sure what your point is about that, but I agree that it would probably satisify the reg.

Just a random side note: I worked for a short while several years ago at the Pizza Hut in Winter Park, Colorado. Apparently, in CO, the number of toilets necessary in a restaurant is dictated by the fire code inspection determined max occupancy of said restaurant. I was told by the owner, that after they built the place, the fire codes changed slightly, and the max occupancy turned out to be higher than they had anticipated. Thing is, they only had two very small bathrooms (one men's room and one women's room). As a result of the increased max occupancy, they were forced to add one more toilet to each restroom. In the men's room, that's not problem, they added a urinal. In the women's room, though, there are now two toilets about three inches from each other with no wall in between!

I only ever knew of two girls who used those toilets at the same time as each other (mostly for shock value...they worked there and all us guys who worked there at the time thought they were hot, so they'd play us like that) they said the best part is that, if two people are on the toilets at the same time, they can share the same newspaper! :D:
