[Greenbuilding] ... device to purify human waste, make compost and generate electricity

[Gennaro]

All that fancy technology for a light in the toilet?? What a waste of money.
The genius of composting toilets is that they are so simple. They should
have spent that money building ten thousand composting toilets.
One of the most effective toilets I ever used was in India - a shack with a
hole out the back to a pig. Crap in, bacon out.
But the composting toilet still wins hands down.
