Well-Vented to Reduce Odor

The nation's capital is decked out in portable restrooms. They literally line long portions of the National Mall and many sidewalks along downtown streets.

To the right is the "Deluxe Restroom," which seems to be the model of choice.

The product's website states the following. A couple of words specifically jumped out and I have bolded them in case you miss them:

[Company name] is a premier provider of portable restrooms for events held in the Metropolitan region. Whether you're hosting a wedding, show, race or festival, we'd be proud to service your event.

If you find yourself visiting one of the capital's portable restrooms. These are the features that you will find (with additional commentary):
  • Forest green colored restrooms blend in nicely with outdoor settings [how about brick?]
  • Dedicated event unit (never used on construction sites) [just your other four million friends]
  • Indoor lock for privacy and optional outside lock to allow restricted personnel use [do they mean "personal" not "personnel?"]
  • Interior non-slip floor [unless it's under 32 degrees]
  • Extra large door opening easily accommodates people of any height [how about width?]
  • Well-vented to reduce odor [very reassuring]

Did I mention that there have been reports that there are about 7,000 portable restrooms. Great, that means there's about one for every 575 people. Let the fun begin!
