BJ: Yeah, that scene impressed me. I remember they didn't wash their hands, though, they passed them under presumably radioactive thingies to clean them. So ok, they're sterile - but what if you've got a little drop o' gold on your finger? Wipe it on your pants??

Since Vulcan is an arid planet - and presumably Vulcans are descended from desert animals, they may not even need TP - their bowels might just recover any moisture. Seems logical.
Isn't anyone going to say "SHIT HAPPENS"? I can't be the only punster.
Seriously, all my bridges have adjacent heads. Things happen quickly in space. If you're not careful, you might miss it.
I'd expect 24th Century AC would take care of any odors (or 24th Century diets...). After all, all meats consumed onboard are synthetic. Maybe the reasons are partially esthetic - not just philosophic.

Well, there has to be somewhere for the new officer of the week to clean himself up when he shits his pants...
On second thought, maybe it's where they hide all the dead red shirts. Or yellow shirts. Whatever the hell they were.

I was having a conversation about this with my brother the other day when it occurred to me that in the modern Navy there are, of course, heads...and the officers, obviously, must need to use them sometimes....so I wonder, has it ever been that the Admiral has been dropping a depth charge, so to speak, when suddenly the Russkies or a U-boat or something attacks? Explosions rock the ship, calls for the Admiral to the bridge, and he's there frantically trying to pinch it off and zip up his pants at the same time? It has to have happened, statistically speaking, right?

Next to the Head there should be a closet where they stash all the burnt out panels that explode weekly. There's probably a huge storage area in the floor between the Con/Ops consoles and the viewscreen to store all the replacment panels/consoles.... Maybe a mop too- occasionally redshirt blood is spilled and we cant have that staining the beige carpet on the flagship, can we?
