REUSING WASH WATER

Dave if you don't like reusing wash water then you could never wash any two items in the same load as there may be cross contamination, only exception is a pair of socks if they were worn by the same person at the same time LOL John.

 

PS same for dishes, only soiled dish per load in a DW or a dish pan of sudsy water.

Cleanliness Hype

I find it amusing that so many people are so concerned or paranoid with "cross-contamination" and having their laundry and dishes come out SO HYGIENIC. If you stop a moment to think, as soon as a washer or dishwasher has finished its cycle, the moment the washed items hit the atmosphere, and next one touches anything with their bare hands, everything is contaminated immediately! D'OH!

If you really think about it

how many times that water you drank today was dinosaur urine?? carried fish poop etc. The Earth is an amazing machine because everything has been here since 3 billion years and nature is still fresh as a daisy. Now that's a miracle!

I have to admit that the control panels for this pair is pretty neat. Back in the 80's if I had seen these I would have thought that they looked really futuristic.

It's kind of sad that they do look dated, even though even the most modern washers these days still have dials on them. I like the little LED diagrams for the tub water level and temperature. That's something which is definitely a product of its time.

I think talking about Suds Savers is something reserved for another thread, one I'm kind of tempted to start.

DINOSAUR URINE

Jon I always love the way you think, it reminds me of my father who always tried to get us to think about the big picture of things in life. 

 

I always remember my father telling that one time when he was standing in line at the water cooler at work and his assistant was taking a drink. And he remarked just think how many times that water has been drank before, he said after that the women only drank Cokes, LOL.
