Drying For Freedom – Will This Film Finally Make People Stand Up and Take Notice? Below is a brief excert and trailer for a new film that is being put together around drying laundry and clothes with a clothesline…please take the time to watch the trailer and leave a comment as it certainly makes a compelling statement. “A conflict is raging in the US. Protests, political movements and murder have taken place in the name of an unlikely ideal: clotheslines. Tens of millions of individuals across Northern America are banned from outdoor line drying by the very communities they live in, forcing them to turn to the dryer. Homeowners who break the rules are fined, sued and even foreclosed on. This ban is not only infringing on civil rights, it’s contributing to the environmental and energy crisis. The dryer is responsible for 6% of the average household’s energy bill and it costs residential ratepayers in the US an estimated $5 billion annually. Corporate America has sold the dryer and the consumption of electricity as a status symbol, and now they have their eyes on a much bigger prize – the world.” Our future is hanging on the line. for more info on this movie you can checkout their website at http://www.dryingforfreedom.com/ Posted by Gary Nickless → October 12, 2010 at 3:17 AM under News and Events
