Since the Energy Crisis of 2001 many home associations are considering lifting bans on clotheslines. Using
Unclotheslines is legal. Indoor drying is booming. Relocation is critical. If you live an arid climate clothes will dry naturally
in 3 or 4 hours. But even if your wash takes 15 or 20 hours to dry; what's the hurry? You won't be wearing 99% of your
clothes today. Most of your garments will be in the closet or the dresser at least for a week or two.
Electric clothes dryers are not only extremely expensive to operate, they require babysitting. You need
to be vigilant, because if your garments sit there for more than a few minutes after drying - it's Wrinkle City. There was
1,670 fires in homes last year caused by electric clothes dryers.
The irritating noise of metal buttons and zippers constantly banging against a metal cylindrical drum can
cause migraines. Dryers throw off heat into your home, so your air conditioner has to work even harder, costing bucks. A stuffy,
congested atmosphere can linger for hours. Most washer loads are too big for your dryer so you cut them in half. Waiting on
a dryer is drudgery, waiting twice is double the pain in the hamper. It's like being held hostage by a machine and the ransom
note arrives monthly from the Power Company.
Hang 2 Unclotheslines at a time above your washer, give yourself space to manuever. Don't waste time checking
to see if you loaded every clip, there's plenty more available. Keep loads balanced. Wipe off top of washer and dryer before
each use. Make sure the floor is clean because when you download dozens of garments at a time, one sock always seems to find
the floor.
4,700 years ago, Ivan Grezdrvebop threw his beach towel
(a mountain goatskin) over a vine that he had stretched between two trees. He split a twig halfway and wedged it securing
the goatskin to the vine, and thus he invented the first clothespin. It took humanity 47 centuries to substantially improve
on Ivan's system. Why wait any longer, to order?
