TIL the "Gatling gun" was named after Richard Jordan Gatling.
"Later in his life, Gatling patented inventions to improve toilets, bicycles, steam-cleaning of raw wool, pneumatic power, and many other fields."
I now can't help but wonder what it would be like to use a "Gatling toilet".
@troberts Imagine the productivity gain if we could all just shit an entire week's worth of shit in a single, explosive session!
