Where would we be with that philosophy? <br /><br />In my opinion, another word to watch out for is "convenience." If someone says:"You are only doing that because it is more convenient"--that statement is meant as a put-down. But what is "convenience"? It's prioritization. Doing something in a convenient way (using a washer and dryer, for example) save my time so I can spend my time on my own priorities. If a person wants to spend their time doing wash in a tub and hanging it out, that is their choice and their priority. I don't see them as holding the Moral High Ground because of this choice.<br />Meredith Angwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02737538041807740424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6371054633037294842.post-40580140878686098002013-03-30T09:19:43.117-04:002013-03-30T09:19:43.117-04:00His ideas have deceived many, possibly even himsel...His ideas have deceived many, possibly even himself.EntrepreNukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05878943100501705689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6371054633037294842.post-26773522413737698852013-03-30T09:13:47.191-04:002013-03-30T09:13:47.191-04:00Of course "negawatts" were powered by th...Of course "negawatts" were powered by the negathoughts of renewable energy guru Amory Lovins, who will be seen decades hence for the charlatan he is, and partly to blame for the windustrial sprawl afflicting formerly pristine parts of our planet.Atomikrabbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02378221046939835905noreply@blogger.com
