I'd suggest having an option for "every few months". But since that wasn't available I put a year.

Several studies posted that the computer keyboard / mouse is the dirtiest thing you're likely to encounter. Almost always dirtier than the toilet seat.

    It is true though, I recall one of the biology classes at my old high school performing a similar experiment, the result was the keyboards were dirtier then the area of the floor next to the toilet.

    Honestly I just  thought this was subtle praise to the Janitor.

    Pee is sterile as long as you dont have any sort of infection.

    Crap, on the other hand, is not.
    Your more likely to get pee on the floor, or the toilet seat, than crap... thats not to say its impossible.

    Also: There was a study that found mens restrooms are cleaner than womens restrooms.

        Actually, a lot of the places here dont have dividers.

        I think the worst place is our drive in theater, where the entire urinal is an open tiled wall with water running down it, and an inward sloping tiled floor... I dont tend to use their restrooms ;)
