Or, instead of putting rocks in your toilet's reservoir, you can simply 
adjust the trigger arm (that thingamajig with a big plastic bubble at the 
end of it) so that it terminates water refill sooner.

[Either that or leave the Christmas tree up year-round . . . Shorter walk 
to the john, you understand.]

It certainly beats putting rocks in your toilet.

your toilet tank
equal to 1/2 the volume of the tank.

flush toilets. 
I was so impressed with them I bought one for my daughter for her 
Christmas present last
year.  Made sense to me. . . . she's on a septic system where she lives 
and she's
conserving a valuable natural resource with every half-flush.  The Natural 
Abode is a
great shop with very helpful staff to answer all your questions. Check it 
out if you
haven't already.

Dept. . . they have some
great free gadgets for the homeowner who wants to save water.  The young 
lady who works
there was so nice putting together a bunch of stuff for me. . . .for my 
bathroom, kitchen
and garden. Check them out, too.

we are looking forward to what else we can do. -Tom
