    I'm looking at this things imagery and thinking, HEY! the image of the crossed streams
    (and at that simple phrase somthing involving pee comes to mind)
    allows the possibility that you could have a thick block, and a three lines in for water, and a trinary gate.. if only one of the streams is feeding, it still comes out the bottom, but with 2, they'd deflect together down the opposite side, (of three combinations) and all three streams at once would feed (with the right angle) straight down the middle. Hmm?
