As a dedicated leftist, I am outraged by this desecration of one of our Holy Books. What next? Burning Michael Moore's films?

BTW, how does the page paper work -- too flimsy? or glossy?

But some Americans are tired of having to flush their toilets twice, so they've taken to smuggling high-flow toilets from Canada..

Our previous house was not plumbed properly and the main bathroom toilet often took two or more flushes to finish the job, even after I replaced it twice. When we put the house on the market, I knew I would have to do something about this problem and re-piping things was out of the question. Living where we do, in northern Minnesota, I made a 200 mile "toilet run" to Fort Frances, Ontario to get a high capacity model. The fellow at the building supply store knew exactly which model I needed and said he ships dozens of them a year to the US.

It wasn't smuggling, either, because a home owner can legally install his own high capacity toilet. The law only says a builder or plumber cannot sell or install one.

By the way, the toilet was made in Mexico.

This is good.

did anyone wonder how all those Muslims from Afghan to Indonesia even knew what a toilet IS ?

i bet my Toto Drake II could flush the sucker. As my plumber said, "it's got one hell of a flush," and "we got one at our office and it handles a dozen plumbers."

The Japanese could do it. Their pipes are 6" dia. and they flush everything down them. Any Freepers over there able to give it a try??
