“Having been in a few muslim counties, never saw no stones next to that tiled hole in the floor”

I think the stones are just for when you are out in the wilderness with no water nearby. So, if there is a water hose, no need for the stones.

Stones beat a corn cob, depending on the stone I suppose.

Good idea to not run around picking up souvenir stones in camel-jock land.

The whole thing still sounds so very 8th Century.
