Is the fact of Luna for women also the reason the British call it the LU? John
From The Word Detective http://www.word-detective.com/072999.html Incidentally, in case you folks out there were just warming up your ballpoints to write and ask where the term "loo" came from, I have some bad news: no one knows for sure. The most likely theory traces it to the French noun "lieu" (place), possibly from a shortening of the phrase "lieux d'aisance," meaning "places of comfort" (or "comfort stations").
