Pre-low flow toilets. Anyone old enough to remember those?
I do! Also known as "The last model that wasn't at risk of clogging up prematurely".

I do like the idea of not mixing electricity with water.

I always wondered about how you dry your *** after a bidet washing? Toilet paper? Any toilet paper I know would disintegrate when touching dripping wet skin. Maybe u just sit there and drip dry? -no wonder the French never get anything done

No, I have a gas water heater.So, you're a fan of cold showers?
I have to ask: Does your water heater have an electric lighter for the pilot light or electric controls? :unsure:

I knew you were going to ask that. Yes.
I've never wanted gas in my domicile and have always feared it, yet I at times work with high voltage electrical equipment;-)?) Fear of the unknown when potential negative consequences are large is a powerful thing.
Reminds me of my interview for my last job (which I was sent to by an industrial tech head hunter). Two of the first things I was asked was whether I had experience working with large gas-fired ovens / furnaces, and overhead cranes. I probably should have just politely said 'no' and just left right then, but I answered 'no' and finished the interview. Dang it, they hired me anyway;-)
Now I'm quite experienced working with all the gas train and electrical / computer control systems on huge multi-zone gas-fired ovens and furnaces about the size of my whole apartment (or larger), and some ~100' tall (and overhead cranes;-(
I understand gas systems a bit today and my responsibilities include doing fault analysis / repair, calibration / certification on all that stuff, but I still don't want gas in my domicile. It still scares me. I don't even trust myself where gas is concerned, let alone others.
I guess expanding one's horizons / perspective is the essence of life in some respects:-)
and no, I still use toilet paper.
Our bidet does not use electricity, butt I still use toilet paper. A lot less than pre-bidet, though.
Let me pose a question: If you happened to get some :poop: on yourself, would you be satisfied by wiping it off with toilet paper? Or would you wash your hands? :unsure:

I'd wash my hands.... But only as common courtesy to others.
Well, you can do as the folks in India do ... (copy and pasted the following). I learned about this custom when I watched a movie "Outsourced" where a company sent an US employee to India.
"In India, people primarily use their right hand to eat food, as the left hand is traditionally considered unclean. The left hand is typically reserved for personal hygiene, and using it to eat or to pass dishes to others is considered impolite".

I have a Craftsman Shop Vac my dad bought me for a housewarming gift in 1988; still works like a champ!
I finally threw away my Dad's Craftsman. The motor died.
I updated it to a shop vac that uses a disposable bag. Love the disposable bag.
