Why don't all toilets reinvent themselves?

So I saw this invention on Design Milk, and had to mention it.  If any of you are like me, public restrooms gross me out.  If I don't hover, I have layers of the toilet tissue below me.  Then when it comes time to flushing, I never use my hands, and always my foot.  Perhaps that's too bad for the next lady to follow, but I'm looking out for myself. 


Lorenzo Buffa, Christina Zapata and Teagan Ruane have come up with a concept called StepFlush to avoid using your hands to flush public toilets.    Ah....I love people who are changing the little things in the world ...one flush at a time! (sorry I couldn't help myself)

**I have actually used something similar before-I just can't remember where I was-it must have been a different country-but I remember loving it!

The pictures aren't working- I'll have to google to actually see this awesome invention- but it sounds really cool! In fact, why did no one think of that earlier?? Seems a lot more sanitary. Also, congrats on your new niece! She is so cute.
