But there is an amazing thing the human body does that we do not entertain or allow anymore and it is very unhealthy not to, it’s called acclimation. After living this way for a couple years you find that heating and cooling is rarely needed because your body once again starts acclimating to winter and summer changes as it was designed to.

Yes, there have always been a small group of hermits that enjoy their lifestyles - But Valley girls?

I simply prefer continence and LNG, Oil and Coal - Nuclear as well currently provide for this excellent lifestyle in an extremely cost effective way in the U.S. of A

As for the Rest of the world, just look around, they all wish to be here, and not where they live in their limited energy ways.

And it’s all based on pure LAZINESS, consumerism, class and status, and universal assumptions that everyone has to absolutely have these amenities to be “comfortable” or they are living substandard.

We are completely independent of this cultural and financial enslavement. A little hard work and very slight inconvenience is worth every bit of not being sucked or forced into the dependency mess and having society dictate how we should live.

Let the valley girls have at it and beat themselves up trying to out do each other. We can just sit back and watch it all slowly destroy it’s self knowing we are ahead of the game and will be just fine when it does.
