Well, then there's gonna be a whole lot of people that figure out they don't
need to do two loads of laundry a week! Bet you guys don't. I know we sure
don't.
I think this would be an example of the whole waste as a life style that is
America!
Besides, think of how fit all the couch potatoes will become if they have to
pedal to clean their clothes<g> Or pedal to use their computers or
toasters or blenders or, or, or.

Correct that wringers use less energy than spin dry. But this entry is_______________________________________________
quite candid about the work involved. You are going to pedal the machine
for
an hour and half (continuously) to do one load of laundry.
Make no mistake that this is a very efficient use of resources. But the
family that does two loads of laundry a day will have someone on that seat
three hours day. Allowing for a break now and again, that's a half time
job
just to power the washing machine.
All this changes, of course, if you use less laundry. (Same with using
less
electricity).
I've used a manual powered wringer before and believe me if you are
washing
jeans, you are going to break into a sweat wringing them even with pedal
power.
Good site.
