You mean you don't have a pair of channel locks permanently in your suit case, to "repair" those hotel showers that just don't have enough water coming out of them? Mikek

Channel locks don't work on the gov't's newest scheme... it takes fine needle-nose to do the deed.

As for hotels... I carry my own shower-head assembly if I'm going to be a week or more at some remote location.

When I was on Long Island for three months I went down to Lowe's, bought two pair of channel-locks, a pair of needle-nose, and a nice hand-held shower head ;-) ...Jim Thompson

So the answer is "yes, I do!" :-)

PS. Don't you still need the channel locks to get the shower head off. (or do you just whisper sweet nothings in it's ear)

Cool, thanks!

Along with the high-flow showerhead, trisodium phosphate (Home Depot, paint section) to get clothes cleaner; the Arnold Xtreme blade to get the lawnmower to work better...

Yep. All those _extras_ were what amused me. ...Jim Thompson

Yep, the meter measures gallons. $12 for 11000 gallons = $0.00109/gal

Yep. Fred just can't cope with things being different in different places.

As for needing the channel-locks... a many year old installation, with pipe dope no less. ...Jim Thompson

Our utility charges a greater amount per gallon for the sewage treatment than for the actual water, and additional taxes and fees for the wastewater plant infrastructure
