I want to thank those that provided meaning replies. My concern is not without some basis, but the information I have is old.
Why? (I know some of you think that this is frivolous.)
In the long distant past, I did work for Thetford in their R&D group. The copies of all the warranty reports for all products came to my desk. The number of reported paper clogs was not trivial. We identified even then that Charmin and another (forgotten) brand were the real culprits. It seems that they were even stout enough to clog the 3" opening of a Slide-Eze valve that was then the standard dump valve.
We will soon be doing something we rarely do. That would be park the coach in one place for a week. Using a lot of water in flush is simply not an option. Tanks are only so big overnigths at campgrounds will be rare while we are traveling and dumping at the rally will be less than convenient.
Again - Thanks to you all
