October 17, 2007

Ok, so this is not exactly Part II of ‘Green Clothes’. Rather, consider it as an example and a cautionary tale.

What happens to a T-shirt when you leave it “drying” in the sun for 2 weeks? (and it falls and sits there all crumpled and no one bothers to pick it up)

Thats what happens. So dry inside out. Not too long. And don’t be a dumbass.

And yes, part II is coming soon.
