Frozen Block of Urine Crashes Through House 17

If that's true, then all I have to say is. . . Well, actually, I can only blink in stunned silence. (And type here on slashdot, natch.)
Basically, if I understand it correctly, the media claim is that in a passenger jet plane, one of the few devices in this day and age which are safety tested and numbered down to each individual pop rivet, that when it comes to the plumbing, standards and oversight are thrown, (literally) overboard so that hatches can accidentally 'blow' on
