Does the skirt really do anything except prevent/lessen splashes? Since it isn't a seal, it certainly doesn't prevent odors. If it is just a splash preventer, there are other things that could be done to accomplish this. Like sticking a towel or some such in the hole, or not travelling with the Thetford full, or other things that the fertile minds on this forum can come up with... It has always seemed like a strange design to me, particularly since it is the major part of the toilet which can not be cleaned at all.
