What color and brand of toilet paper onboard?

Sure hope this subject hasn't been run into the ground!

It seems like something we can discuss that won't get too emotional.

I was having fun here but I see its really just a place for a few old timers not the rest of us.

See you all on the waterfront.

Maybe one of you admin types can figure out how to make my profile disappear.

The stuff that dissolves the quickest is the least popular seems evident or my years. I've never found a situation that after it was in the tank it really could be proven to make a difference. Some research projects just don't require conclusive evidence or at least the efforts required to obtain.

I would yield to the rule of the Admiralty on this question: "If the Admiral likes it then you don't need to know any more." If you can explain the correct technical answer to the Admiral you've earned as high a rank as I ever dreamed possible.

It comes in colors?

I would choose green if it did. It would look like seaweed as it trailed past.

We use a brand called "Enviromental Activist" - it is green on the outside and red on the inside.

I does have a problem though in that it is short on substance so it is easy to poke ones finger through it during the wipe.

Sorry but all of the old timers are responding. Of course we know a thing or two about toilet paper, being old.
