Too many IF's for my needs. When I wipe my ass, I wipe till it's
clean. If I want fluffy paper, thats what I want to use. A well
designed toilet should handle all of that fine, and should only clog
if someone uses a whole roll of paper, which is stupid anyhow.
The old toilet that came iwth my parents 1950's house would flush
every time. except if someone really got carried away with the paper.
The plunger dried up and got stuck to the floor from lack of use.
The late 1990's toilet in my present house is a "low water
consumption" piece of garbage that plugs at least every other time I
use it. My plunger is needed daily. I have to flush at least 3 times
after each use. As soon as I find an old used toilet, this one goes
in the garbage where it belongs.
