toilet



I'm not sure about this: I don't think it's a very clever idea...

Just read that in America you can't find toilets with different flushing power? One knob for big business and one for small? Is that true?

Harry,

I've never seen one with different flushing powers. Are you telling me that toilets overseas have this?

Standard we have two choices of flushing, although some only one. I thought this was normal all over the world and didn't pay attention when I visited the US.
An American visiting Denmark made a few comments about it in some article.

Here you might be able to see what I mean:

In the second picture you can see two knobs.

Well, this is one for trivial pursuit.

Harry,
You have waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much time on your hands.
Yes ,we have two knobs, but they are either on the left or the right (I'm sneaking in a political comment

Well Bill, I can't say the topic is at the top of my interest list, but I happened to stumble into it.

In Japan I sat on my first heated toilet; quite an experience that once might make it into a novel. The water they used to fill the flush tank was first used to wash your hands. Luckily it was not the other way around...
