a question for the ladies.

fighting germs makes your immune system healthy !! in other news , I generally clean the toilet with any detergent available , usually liquid Tide or similar . I use a non marring scrubbie to clean out the bowl and then wipe the whole toilet down with 100 proof rubbing alcohol . Alcohol dries streak free and clean and kills germs . No gloves used .

,
Do you travel?

Putting the lid down isn't just a matter of courtesy: it's a matter of being sanitary. When a toilet is flushed, "particulate matter" is released into the air and travels 6 feet or more:

Really? No response to this?

I have one friend that has told me about the reasons why people should should keep the lids closed. He's a bit of a knucklehead. As far as I know, no one else I know has the same view.

But I did read some of the article..it sounded only half serious.

Either way, wrestling with TWO lids, is not something I want to do.

I fully accept the germs in my life.

Now you only sound half serious.
