Okay.  We've kept the secret since the advent of indoor plumbing,
but the amusement potential is long gone.  I'll risk the wrath of
men everywhere by divulging our secret method for avoiding this
household catastrophe.

Before sitting on the toilet, we look at the toilet seat!  A quick
visual inspection can reveal with uncanny accuracy whether it is
up or down!  If this seems arcane and bizarre to you, you can
practice by putting the seat up, looking at it, putting it down
and looking again, etc.  After only a couple hours of this you will
find that you can tell instantly the state of the seat merely by 
looking at the toilet before sitting on it!

Sorry, guys, but it had to come out sooner or later.
