I, Ken of the khandu, give the loud "AMEN!!" to brucie's suggestion.
I believe that Ebbie should do as brucie says, create the tread with "The Flush of a Distant Toilet" title, and as the opening post (or perhaps including the entire sentence of this rare jewel!). Then Ebbie should signal to Joe Offer to immediately close the thread (Of course, Ebbie should "ready" Joe beforehand!).

This will do two important things. It will forever establish Ebbie as the creator of the phrase, (and would, I believe, stand up in court, should the need arise!) and it will give the wonderful phrase its own distinct and greatly deserved place in the Hallowed Halls of Mudcat.

So, I trust that you, Ebbie, are already in conference with Joe Offer concerning this noble & worthy endeavor!

Ken
