   OK, let me share an idea I saw last night. All the water that goes   
   down the toilet is wasted water but it's good water. Solution???   
      
   Easy, water from the bathtub, dishwasher, etc, goes to this tank and   
   from the tank to the toilet! That's what I call being smart. Frugality   
   is the way to go and the Germans are far ahead of us. Recycling is   
   barely visible in my area and I'm talking about a recognized city in   
   America. Well, I say my community is full of shit, but that's another   
   story.   
      
   Waste is all around me. The lights of this beach path are lit in broad   
   daylight and nobody gives a shit.
