Call Me Cynical...

But i just don't think that the "courtesy flush" is all that effective.

..and what is the "courtesy flush"?

Okay, how can I put this delicately...When one is vacating one's bowels in a public restroom, there is a tradition/rite known as the "courtesy flush" during the event, the purpose of which, supposedly, is to protect others from the vapors/odors associated with such an enterprise...

Call me optimistic then, because I am a firm believer in the courtesy flush. When applied properly it keeps the contents of the bowl from getting a head of steam and flooding the overworked capacity of the pitiful little bathroom vents. I don't care about the noises so much, but PLEASE people, please be nice to your stall mates and flush a few times. Bad on water economy, good on my nose.

Anonymous(if that is your real name)...I think you read more into my statement than I intended...I will continue to practice the "courtesy flush", I'm just not convinced that it is all that effective, kind of like praying and voting...
