Recently noticed (by moi) and probably installed in the last month or two
(I don't keep careful logs of my personal use) in a men's room at
eco-sensitive, financially newly-careful Harvard's Widener Library -- on
the wall behind the toilet, a sign:<br>
-----<br>
Water-Saving<br>
Dual-Functioning Handle<br>
<u>Up</u> for #1 (liquid waste)<br>
Coated [referring to the handle] to protect against germs<br>
<u>Down</u> for #2 (solid waste)<br>
