I have so many things on my social calendar these days, it is difficult to know which you are making reference to, in particular.
Is there a reason why toilets use chains? Mine sometimes kept running, and I got told that there was a kink in the chain; just jiggle the chain. Works, but couldn't I just replace the chain with, say, some fishing line?

That's what I do each time it happens, but it happens pretty often. There's probably some other underlying problem, but in the meantime, I was looking for a more permanent solution.

There's nothing special about fishing line; it's just something that I can easily get my hands on that seems like it would fit the bill and is "not a chain". If a chain kinks and causes problems, then why not replace the chain with something else? I couldn't as easily adjust the length of anything else, and it might stretch, but are there any other reasons I'm missing?

Thanks everyone. My toilet shall work properly! -Or it won't. At least I'll learn.
