1. to provide answers to basic needs like food, space and time
   to encourage creativity
2. to enable people to make a buck or two

We're running out of basic resources such as food, water, space, clean air as well as space and time. New inventions can help us with these problems.

1. You can perform two functions at the same time.
   Wash water is used to flush the toilet.
2. The idea is totally absurd and will not be accepted in this country.

The wash water stored in the washing machine would be used to flush the toilet, thereby saving clean water needed for drinking or bathing.

1. Actually there is no other benefit.
   The smell of the laundry softener would neutralize unpleasant toilet odors.
2. You would save space.

Since the washing machine part would be located above the toilet in what is usually unused space, you would save space. In an apartment that has limited space, this could certainly help.

1. It's only a concept.
   It will be available in Europe within two years.
2. It did not meet minimum Department of Energy requirements.

Sorry to disappoint you, but this is a conceptual design and not yet a production reality.

1. This is just too much.
   As long as you are careful to bend over correctly to avoid back trouble.
2. If you really want to save water at all costs.

In principle the idea is good. After you flush the toilet, the water with which you wash your hands flows into the toilet tank, ready for the next flush, instead of clean water.

1. Saves space by combining two essential items.
   Removes the stigma of a keg party by hiding the evidence.
2. Keg is always accessible and ready for use

1. No such thing - this device is intended only for serious party people.
   You can store cold water in the keg.
2. Remove the keg to store food.

You can remove the keg and use the space to store less important items like food.

1. The SunShower lets you do both at the same time.
   Yes, when you shower outdoors the water will filter the sunlight.
2. Why would anyone want to ruin the pleasure of tanning by showering?

At the beach or pool you tan, then shower, or the other way around -- but not at the same time. The SunShower, introduced in 2006, enables you to tan while showering thanks to UV light that is similar to sunlight.

1. That is the price you have to pay for being tanned.
   If you look a little older, at least be tanned.
2. Use of LEDS in this combination is an anti-aging option.

The company introduced an anti-aging option using LEDs that reduces the appearance of wrinkles, enlarged pores and crow's feet.

1. Too much trouble and space needed for separate hampers.
   Great potential for a labor-saving device.
2. This is just too weird to ever be accepted.

Such a device was invented in China, but it raises the problem of differentiating between types of clothing. You would have to divide the clothes into separate hampers.

1. a spigot on the keg
   a spigot inside the door
2. a spigot on the front door

A pipe leads from the keg to a spigot on the front of the door.

1. If the washer were working it might disturb your toilet experience.
   You could drop items into the toilet.
2. A big thing like that might cause someone sitting below to feel discomfort.

Apart from banging your head on the washer as you stand up, you could drop items of clothing into the toilet while loading or unloading the washer.
