The shower curtain we hate to love

I have an aging vinyl shower curtain -- it has pink lawn flamingos on it -- I've trimmed down the bottom edge because it was collecting mildew and the grommets are rusting. Like Stephanie P - I've read all the reports about vinyl and offgassing. Vinyl is a problem all the way down the production line.

So - what do you do with an old vinyl shower curtain? I've had a nylon curtain in the past -- it was washable and worked great (it ended up staying with a former housemate). My shower curtain will be around for a long time -- though the grommets may rust away. How do I dispose of it?

Also - bathrooms are small, dark places. Using a clear shower curtain allows me to shower without using the light -- so it's a choice between turning on more lights or keeping the clear shower curtain. What's a girl to do?
