Unfortunately, the link was to a Club Twitter account rather than my own personal Twitter account and I can't find a way to undo the link.

Please advise, dokada@uchicago.edu

I am the survey editor for the America's Best Restroom Awards. This is a rather unique contest. We get some amazing entries that range from the elegant to the artistic to the downright quirky. (Web site: www.bestrestroom.com)

Any chance you might share this in your blog? We're currently seeking nominations. Typically, our best entries come from travelers who frequent interesting bars, restaurants, museums, hotels and airports. It's not an overly commercial contest, just meant to be fun and draw attention to the importance of restroom hygiene.

Best regards,
David Brandt
