A possibly apocryphal tale concerns a clipping describing the Space Toilet
that Larry Niven sent to Jerry Pournelle (or maybe vice versa, or maybe
two entirely different people, it was a long time ago) with the part
labelled "Liquid/Solid Separation Impeller" circled with the notation
"Jerry: as near as I can figure, the fuvg is SUPPOSED to hit the fan!"

My apologies to the two gentlemen involved if I have misattributed the story.
