   Jim's fundamentally correct. I'd not call conservation "unacceptable",   
   but it surely is uncompetetive in the (very) near term.   
      
   I too favor clothslines over dryers, unless it's raining and I'm out   
   of clean socks.

   Despite disbelievers laundry dries outdoors in winter here in NH, by   
   freeze-drying. Or at least it dries enough to finish indoors.   
      
   I keep hoping to develop something patentable though so far my energy   
   innovations have been too simple and easy to copy. I don't think I could   
   patent adapting a sink spray hose to a garden sprayer to shower with water   
   heated on the wood stove, or the way I uncap and clean the chimney from the   
   ground by pulling on ropes. There are extra clotheslines under a 4' deck   
   roof overhang for when rain threatens. I hinged the overhang to the rafters   
   and its outer supports to the handrail so it can swing down vertical for   
   repair on a stepladder.
