[pct-l] Toilet paper

[David Ellzey]

Agreed Diane, I use the "backwoods bidet" method myself and the difference in cleanliness versus TP is considerable and not something you even think of until you have experienced it for a few days. I think most people are reluctant to try out paperless techniques because they think it's a messy, nasty effort and don't believe that there are personal advantages for them, only environmental. Unfortunately they would have to try it to dispel those misconceptions.

I used local plants and a small squeeze bottle. No bulk to carry,  
nothing to run out of, cleaner for me and better for the environment.

Don''t forget the sanitizing gel.
