Just in case you wanted to know - here's the numbers on current potty training:
17 - the number of panties we went through the first 3 days. This includes the pair I threw away at a restaurant because I just couldn't bring it back into a room where people were eating.
3 - how many times Annie had to go to the bathroom during the hour we were at Cabellas celebrating a potty training success.
1 - how many of those times the "automatic" flusher flushed while she was sitting on it.
2 - how many times I had to force her to sit on the potty while she was saying "I don't want to pee on this potty, it's scary."
15 - how many people were looking at me strangely in the crowded Cabellas bathroom, while my child was screaming about how she doesn't want to use the scary potty.
1 - how many sweet women approached me and asked if everything was alright and, after assuring her that both of us were happy, gave me a beautiful smile.
1 - how many days she has never had an accident.
10 - How many more times I think about her bodily functions more than I think about my own, causing me to do the potty dance more than she does.
Millions and Millions - How many times I love my child for finally making the decision to become one of the many people who can eliminate in the proper manner.

if it helps at all Brad who is almost 12 had a fobia of using anything but the home potty because of his toddler fears of the auto potty up until just a few years ago... and KayLea has just recently decided she's tall enough that if SHE SITS STILL she won't set it off but it's a funny site to see her sit still and tall as she uses it!
go annie!
Ky
Lol! yay!
I must say - If I peed on a potty and it auto-flushed while I was sitting on it - there's not enough chocolate in the world to get me back on it :)
