See? You just saved the cost of the year's membership right there.

Bill,
Thanks. I finally found some pictures (on this site) showing the innards of the mysterious recirculating toilet. After seeing what was inside the bowels (pardon the pun) of the beast it all made sense. The screen does look like it would not take much abuse...except what it was designed for.

Thanks again for the heads up!
