The article states “with wife and daughter”. And even worse, she was a toddler while they did this. The mother talks about how romantic it became to come home to the dark and the silence. No mention of a young child’s fears of living without night lights or soft music or adequate warmth or cleanliness ... if a black couple with a kid turns off the power, lives in the cold, drops off the cleanliness and said it was to save the planet, they’d get charged with child abuse. “Wait, we’re white writers doing a book!” Oh, now it’s OK.
What I've noticed with these eco nuts is, like with the light bulbs. Sure your saving more electricity, but, don't break the bulb and how are they going to dispose of millions of used up light bulbs that are full of mercury? There trying to use corn for fuel. Don't they think at some point that's going to cause a food shortage or at least a more costly food products? And you know how the libs wring there hands about the poor. Seems like everything they do, they actually make the problems worse.
