T&T: TP- was Vacuflush Cycling

It's not even necessary to pay a premium for TP labeled "marine/rv." 
'Cuz it's just very cheap flimsy TP repackaged and marked up 300%.

To determined whether any TP is suitable for use in marine toilet--ANY 
marine toilet--tear off a sheet and put in a glass of water. Come back 
in an hour or two...if the water is milky and all that's left of the TP 
is a little "snow," it's the same thing as "marine/rv" TP and safe for 
use aboard. But if it's still an intact--or mostly intact--sheet, keep 
looking.

Btw...even a clog caused by a major overload of the right kind of TP is 
no reason to start tearing anything apart. Just wait...it'll dissolve on 
its own in an hour or two. It's only when somebody flushes something 
they shouldn't have--wet wipe, facial tissue, tampon, condom, paper 
towel--that you have no choice but to clean it out. But 99x out of 100, 
that only happens if you neglect to tell your guests that NOTHING goes 
into the toilet except what they've eaten first and the TP supplied.
