Bathroom Break: Will inauguration have enough?

WASHINGTON (AP) — To Conrad Harrell of port-a-potty supplier Don's Johns, (today's) inauguration of Barack Obama will be historic, but not in the way you might think.

"This is the largest temporary restroom event in the history of the United States," he said.

Don's Johns is providing many of the 5,000 port-a-potties for the inauguration, but there are other suppliers as well, such as Mr. John, Johnny Blue and Johnny on the Spot.
