It's debatable whether having brought the outhouse, as we did, into the house (with the advent of the flush toilet) was, in fact, a sign of societal progress, or, in fact, a retardation.

I certainly would not be happy, though, with getting up in the night and heading outdoors....

No. It isn't.

Before Americans were inside the house pooping into flush toilets, the Euros were pooping from inside the castles down the walls.

Like modern dentistry, electricity, and refrigeration, I see flush toilets and septic systems as a huge leap forward in human progress.

I do not care to ever see or smell brown streaks running down the sides of my neighbors homes.
