Default GOOD toilet that flushes in ONE flush?


Very true.

You want to shorten the life of every item in the tank, then use
those blue things.

Seems to make perfect sense to me.

In calif in the early 80's, I heard this:

If its brown, flush it DOWN;

if its yellow, let it mellow.


Now, this question:

Using your (or equivalently the above) suggestion, I recall
that some kind of smelly urine-slime would accumulate (under
the water) on the sides of the bowl.

So you were always having to use the toilet-bowl brush.

Question:

That chemical soap-bar-like thing you hang in the
tank, that turns the water blue -- does that eliminate
the problem?

And, in general, what *do* that blue stuff do for you?


Mostly, it screws up the flush-mechanism.
