I noticed something wrong in tonights re-run of seinfeld...the one with the "low flow showerheads". In a previous seinfeld, George "urinated" in the shower. Someone asked Kramer if he ever "urinated" in the shower, and kramer responds "I take baths"...however in this one (and in a newer one) Kramer takes showers...anyone know anymore about this?

Man I say who cares. The show's funny I don't think we have to nit opick at everything on. Just enjoy what we have left of Seinfeld

Yeah....the writers don't have every show memorized like some of us do. They forget or don't care that they are changing someones personality. There are a whole bunch of those kinds of comments that don't match up to older conversations.

The only thing that stays the same is everything changes........

It's either an inconsitency, or somewhere along the line Kramer switched from taking baths to showers.

Maybe George urinating in the shower had something to do with it :-)

Certainly an inconsistency...unless Kramer is a pathological shower-urinator...in which case lying about taking showers was all part of an elaborate subterfuge....makes ya think...

	Thats correct. In the urination episode When questioned about
whether he has ever urinated in the shower Kramer replies "I take baths"
	Yet in the low pressure episode he showers.
	A quote that settles this is Kramer complaining about taking a
bath(or is it when his hot tub doesn't work and he has to use a lower
temperature, either way)
           "I'm lying in a tempid pool of my own filth... with all
		  kinds of bacteria having sex all over me"

This tends to denote a man who cannot sit a pool of warm water and bath himself.

early point he lied about taking baths to avoid the subject. Maybe he had in fact, and didn't want to admit it. Or maybe he used to take baths and then switched.

In the episode didn't Kramer say something about taking baths, about "lying in a pool of you're own filth"
