Exclamation Relief Tube Usage

My $0.02 for those who plan to use a relief tube for the first time ...

Before you begin, confirm the tube is operational by pouring some water through it. This will confirm that it isn't frozen shut from the last time you used it. You certainly will have a problem on your hands if you start peeing into a blocked tube. <grin>

Also, when you're done, pour some more water through it to rinse out all the corrosive stuff you just sent down the tube. And then hold it open for a little bit to allow the air to clear out the liquid (so it won't be frozen next time you need it).
