Worcester, Massachusetts - American Sanitary Plumbing Museum

An ode to the camode and other plumbing wonders. You'll be flushed with amazement when you step inside, not only from the exhibits, but also at the sinking feeling that this museum couldn't exist anywhere else but weird Wormtown. [RMC, 08/14/2003]
