WIPE OUT GLOBAL WARMING: CROW PROPOSES LIMITS ON TOILET PAPER - It's NOT satire
WP^ | 4/23/07 | GeorgiaDawg32 [snip]

"Although my ideas are in the earliest stages of development, they
are, in my mind, worth investigating. One of my favorites is in the
area of forest conservation which we heavily rely on for oxygen. I
propose a limitation be put on how many squares of toilet paper can
be used in any one sitting. Now, I don't want to rob any law-abiding
American of his or her God-given rights, but I think we are an
industrious enough people that we can make it work with only one
square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky
occasions where 2 to 3 could be required. When presenting this idea
to my younger brother, who's judgment I trust implicitly, he proposed
taking it one step further. I believe his quote was, "how bout just
washing the one square out." More +

Of course, these "early-stage" ideas will require government funding
for scientific R&D, but when implemented, will fit right in with what
has already been imposed by other brilliant "planet savers":

"We already have the federal toilet police. ... [Algore's] primary
claim to fame is supervising the federally mandated reduction in
toilet tank size. [He] oversaw the federal regulation to reduce
toilet flushes to 1.5 gallons. This law forbids the sale of new
toilets in the U.S. with larger flush volumes. I remember stories of
Americans driving to Canada to buy larger toilets. They smuggled them
into the country for new home construction. The imagined savings in
water used was quickly lost because Americans must flush several
times to try to clean the residue in the bowl left from too small a
water volume in the initial flush. Algore became the proud chief of
the federal toilet police and that tyranny continues to this day.

".. The human race divides politically into those who want people to
be controlled and those who have no such desire." ~ -- Robert A. Heinlein

"..For the classical l*beral [[ AKA today's c*nservatives - see:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road_to_Serfdom>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road_to_Serfdom
]], the very task of this life is to transcend and perfect oneself by
first mastering oneself. To say that there is not a trace of this
attitude in l*ftism is an understatement, for it is rooted in the
opposite premise: that there is no such thing as self-mastery (only
"repression"), so you must be controlled by the state, by a powerful
collective. ....

Thus, l*ftism inevitably redounds to a situation in which inferior
men rule the superior men, in part because the superior man has no
desire to, or interest in, dominating others.

This is the real reason why there are so very few c*nservatives in
politics, because politics draws from people who wish to control
others, and a c*nservative has no desire to exercise this kind of
power as a replacement for self-mastery." [snip] ~ Robert W.

springs; when he first appears he is a protector." ~ Plato (429-347 B.C.)
