Ring Around the Toilet
If you don't scrub/disinfect the toilet bowl often enough, a dark ring-
bacteria, I assume- forms right around the top of the waterline. Why there? -- We've created a generation that is incapable of dealing with the existence of a dissenting opinion |

Minerals in the water will accumulate there as it is the shallowest portion. Could be some bacteria also. I imagine there is some explainable action of the water action and how it is fed too. |

The "evaporative edge" of the pond. The crusty build-up creates a zone of easy attachment, and ease of access to both water and air for opportunistic microbes. If there is iron coming into the bowl from your pipes, the build-up is sure to take on the color of rust (and possible kill some of the microbes). -- croy |
