Feeling Flushed

Well the article that would never end finally did. It took me a little longer to be able to get in touch with people who were willing to talk about their toilet problems in one of the dorms on campus, but I did it. Getting in touch with a plumber proved to be difficult too, since they are almost always out on a service call. I was able to speak with the part-owner of a Roto-Rooter franchise here in Athens though, and she said she's been around plumbing her whole life, so she was able to answer my questions.
