    If the St. Lawrence ever floods all of us will be wondering about our flood insurance.

    Wonder if a large passing ship causes his windows to get washed, or at least the front porch to get clean. The St.Lawrence last flooded in 2017 I think.

    How do they flush a toilet? Just dump it into the river?

    No, rephrase that...just dump in the river.

    The property featured in this thread is a novelty place, it's not a residence, there's a floor drain in the basement that has a cap on it, it makes a gurgling noise.

    Don't tell the morons in the current administration about the propane or natural gas incineration toilets or they will want to try and ban them, better yet don't tell them about any of them or Thye will want to ban water flush toilets.
    But these are a great alternative to having a holding tank at a weekend cabin that requires pumping by law every year in some states
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    That whole ban gas stoves issue is not your "current administration" it is related to an ages old report from the independent body the U.S. Product Safety Commission that points out (and has so for decades) there are health hazards (undisputable when you burn natural gas in an enclosed environment and don't have a hood fan or don't use it) that is a fact, also a fact is that your "current administration" has no intention of banning the appliances it is right wing media and GOP hype.

    Your country is so polarized that folks read headlines not the whole story and go off half cocked without looking into the facts.
