Well, I assume we’re taking No Impact Man’s word for it that he “shunned toilet paper” for a year. I mean, how do you fact-check a claim like that?
Please, nobody answer. It’s a rhetorical question.
Whew! Thanks, I almost missed your last comment!
I know it was rhetorical, but I expect Leftypedia will volunteer to do it. Either that or Van Jones after Obama fires him. He is an ecofreak, after all.
Actually any of us could “shun toilet paper” for a year with no difficulty ... re-using garbage (last years phone book) would do the job just as well as the old Sears catalog did 100 years ago. I didn’t read anywhere that he actually did without some method of cleaning up. The only drawback would be a little wasted time in working the paper a bit to soften it before use.
Colin Beavan and Sheryl Crow have much in common
