The cutting edge

Dag sent me this article about the “cutting edge” ( pun intended ) in green lawn care

The old fashioned mowers which were welded to these bikes were not that bad. I can understand professional grounds people wanting power mowers, but suburbanites don’t need them and could probably, like most of us, benefit from the moderate exercise. In addition to not polluting the environment further for their lawns ( another rant and post! )

My guess is that there never was a problem to solve. I see so many new things coming out these days that are just ridiculous in terms of the trivial amount of effort they save. My guess is that power mowers were a similar thing back in the day.

Ecogeek

I am really becoming fond of this blog called “EcoGeek”. The blog author sticks to one subject, it is written by someone who knows what he is talking about, the articles are researched, the posts are brief, the posts are informative, the posts are interesting and the author posts regularly.

I’m having a lot of fun and learning a lot by reading it everyday through RSS:
