***You have to read this first:***
Jennifer and Jim kept getting huge water bills. They knew beyond
a
doubt that the bills weren't representative of their actual
usage, and
no matter how they tried to conserve, the high bills continued.
Although they could see nothing wrong, they had everything
checked for
leaks or problem s: first the water meter, then outdoor pipes,
indoor
pipes, underground pipes, faucets, toilets, washer, ice maker,
etc. --
all to no avail.
One day Jim was sick and stayed home in bed,
but kept
hearing water running downstairs.
He finally tore himself from his sick bed to investigate, and
stumbled
onto the cause of such high water bills. Apparently this was
happening
all day long when they were not at home. Knowing that few would
believe
him, he taped a segment of the 'problem' for posterity --
