    c. scientific investigation shows that low flush toilets use about 1.6 gallons of water per flush

    This number contradicts the established knowledge regarding how much water is used in a flush. Not only that, it doesn't make logical sense. You can see the amount that gets flushed between the water in the bowl and the water in the tank. This amount is not close to 7 gallons, which is two gallons more than the water jugs on top of water coolers.
