TOILET TANK WITH PARTIAL DISCHARGE DEVICE This invention relates to a toilet tank, i.e. to a water tank for flushing a toilet. In general, now existing toilet tanks function by completely emptying the contained water as a result of a manual command. In some cases, a flow of only a part of all the available water would be sufficient for flushing the toilet. However, because of the type of discharge valve used in toilet tanks, it is not possible for the user to limit the amount of water discharged. This problem is felt particularly in periods and places where water is scarce. The object of this invention is to provide a toilet tank with a partial discharge device which is very simple in construction and,therefore, very cheap. Please in interest in this opportunity please dont hesitathe to contact me Ing. Vincenzo Balducci Via Foggia, 18 - 70031 Andria - Italy Email : balducci@ba.dada.it
Um, well actually....

Oh, my GOD!! A user-friendly crapper!!! What a concept!!! >This problem is felt particularly in periods and places where water is >scarce. >The object of this invention is to provide a toilet tank with a >partial discharge device which is very simple in construction and,therefore, >very cheap. The only "discharge device", partial or otherwise, I've ever seen that worked was one that I flushed down the john when I was in the 10th grade. (I think the model number was M-80, or something). Ended up in the principal's office trying to explain why in the hell the toilet randomly blew itself 9 feet across the boy's room at a time when I happened to be the only one in there taking a piss, and why I was laughing maniacally when the math teacher from across the hall walked in. Please note that this device is *NOT* marketed for its water-saving properties. To save water on each and every flush, the savvy consumer places a high-tech device known as a brick (as in red things used to build houses and such) into the toilet tank. The brick displaces an amount of water equivalent to its own mass, thus reducing the amount of water present in the toilet tank and, in turn, reducing the amount of water consumed per flush. This is the fastest, easiest, and most efficient way to maximize the consumer's toilet-flushing dollar, and is the only method ever to win the PsyberNut Housekeeping Seal of Approval.. >Please in interest in this opportunity >please dont hesitathe to contact me Does it come with fries?
