Poll question: Do you "let it mellow"?
I'm all about conservation, but "letting it mellow" is where I draw the line!

2. If it's yellow, let it mellow. If it's brown, flush it down.
If it's green, don't let it be seen. :)

5. As the sign on a boat says: In these isles of sun and fun. . .
we never flush for Number One.

12. Ohh, that's better than the one on my grandpa's boat:
"Please don't pee in our lake-- we don't sail in your toilet."

8. If there's no company, I let it mellow.
For instance, if I get up in the middle of the night, I just close the seat.

But if we have guests, or if I'm at someone else's house, I do not let it mellow.

10. NOPE! We don't let it "mellow."
All our lovely new toilets are ultra-low-flow, and they do the conserving for us...
