Well, hopefully he has more sense than that idiot woman I was trying to get
information out of, when I was looking into designing and building a
handicapped accessible  john for people in our camp at Pennsic. I explained
that I was trying to make things more convenient for my campmates, and she
started to get all heavy duty about how by law I HAD to do this, and HAD to
do that, and so forth, and I finally told her, after being polite a couple
times, that I didn't HAVE to do any of it, and thanks to her input, any
disabled visitors could damn well roll down to the portacastles just like
the rest of us.

If your brother DOES have a reasonable amount of sense, ask him, what sort
of set up we could use for that purpose, figuring that the john itself will
be one of those camping pots sold in the camping catalogs- height of the
seat, clearance for chairs inside the support frame, and like that.
