I remember reading something about the city of San Francisco finding it necessary to use thousands of gallons of toxic chemicals to flush their sewer systems because of the widespread adoption of water saving toilets and plumbing fixtures not putting enough water into the sewer system to flush queer poop down the line to the sewage treatment plant. The law of unintended results strikes La La Land again and again. O_o

I can believe that. Our 1.6 gpf toilets do a great job of clearing the
bowl, but I always wonder about moving things down the line to the
street. I double flush often, not from need,, but for safety.


I often clog those low flow toilets because the load of ready mix I drop is often so large the darn toilet can't handle it. I've never had that problem with an old standard toilets. Many times I've proved that the human intestinal tract is indeed 30 feet long. ^_^
