...Thus far, I’d put my use rate at about eighty-five to ninety percent,” he says. Others, however, are less enthusiastic. “I believe in traditional American values: football, shopping, and flushing with downward force,” Daniel Ross-Rieder ’08 says. “This up-flush fad will last one minute longer than the Macarena.” Furthermore, many feel the plumbing improvements don’t go far enough. One Eliot house student complains that the toilets still have no lids. Others bemoan...
