    Exactly. You could keep a democrat busy all the time. Doing what they do best. Something mindless.

    Well, it really depends on if you have the time right? If you are a working person whose time is limited to do things like mow.....well, there is your answer. If you have time though, it really is good for you and the environment.

    You're going pretty far out there, you're getting in deeper and deeper.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    How? I think you are going to have to define 'pollution' first.

    Are you serious? If you have no carbon emissions at all....you have no pollution relevant to this discussion.

    Well I started or somebody else did with mowing during 6-7am in the morning on Saturday and Sunday.

    Quiet, clean, effective, workout, no cost, etc., etc. All win.
