 Tonto, I will keep a lookout for the two button pottys. I was thinking today I believe we had two gold triangle buttons on the LIndo's toilets. And I too was confused which one to push.

Small button - 1
large button - 2

diff. amounts of water to flush.

Usually: left button - 1 (approx .8 gal), right button - 2 (approx 1/2-1.6 gal)

2 button toilets are compulsory in new builds in Australia.

Or if one button is colored "half white/half black", and the other is all black, they are "half flush" (for the obvious) and "full flush" also for the obvious.

More than you wanted to know about toilets.

Oh, I could tell you about toilets in Morocco...or lack thereof..........T's that look like a shower stall with a hole in the floor and you pay for TP....which is why one always "collects" TP when you find it.

But after the day we had the two button sober discussion I tested your theories with merely one tiny square of tp and the small button did not dispatch the paper away

Isn't that ironic. Those toilets are put in to conserve water, but because there's no explanation people hit both or whatever so the button/toilet system probably ends up using more.   Laughing  - except now we know anyway. Wink  I love learning something new.  Thanks Karen!   The toilets on a cruise the first time will scare the **** out of you!  Shocked Laughing
