Oh. My. Goodness. What an lovely efficient plan. I at least have a
washer and dryer upstairs off the bathroom. I sort my clothes and wash
them as I take them off. Since I have a front-loading washer I can do
small loads without using much water. Alas, it uses electricitty.

Now if I can just figure out how to link windpower, of which I have
plenty, into the system I will have achieved one small unit of
efficiency.
