Then why did you ask "do I" if it was done already, fella?

No, there was no "easy way" to fix it, and probably no "hard way" which
could work successfully without costing over a hundred times more than a
new toilet does.

When you break a drinking glass, do you try and fix it, or just replace it?

Congrats animecyberrat, I like to think I don't get conned too often but
this was one of those days when I should have stayed in bed.

When I left to drive to work today I found out that someone had broken
into my car and swiped my cell phone, charger and the "toll change" from
the armrest, leving it open so I noticed immediately. Then the handset
cord on my office phone parted company with one of it's plugs (olde
age), and now I fall for something so obvious in a newsgroup post.

All anoying trivialities compared to what those poor bastards buried in
that coal mine and their families are going through. Thinking of them
sort of puts things in proper perspective, doesn't it?

If he missed the point then so did I and others as well it appears.

Answer: replace the toilet.
Question: Would there be an easy way to fix this
Answer: replace the toilet.

That's the first part, what you (and others) missed was the freaking
2000 lines of a spamming link to his site. Unfortunately for him,
most of us just ignored it as it was down the screen.
