Kimberly Clark, the maker of Kleenex and other cleaning products, has made a weird bathroom gadget that reminds you - in a gentle male or female voice - to wash your hands!

The Hand Hygiene Voice Module features:

- Non threatening, non-intrusive reminder
- Gender voice selection
- Bilingual Message

They claim that this increases hand washing by up to 12%.

Now, if only they can make a similar machine that says "Your mother does not work here. Clean up after yourself" since written messages in office kitchens and breakrooms don't do diddly squat.
