[SustainableTompkins] less bathing

> Frankly folks, I find some of this discussion a little......too earthy.

Nothing like a little shaming to put an end to a useful discussion. And I
was just thinking how wonderful it is when this listserv becomes an
electronic "salon". I would go so far as to say that your insinuation here
is a bit offensive, Tony.

We really need to trust that everyone on the list is smart enough to
figure out when they are in danger of offending their co-workers and need
to wash. Living more sustainable is going to mean challenging many of the
behaviors that have been marketed to us by corporations and media. It's
going to bring up the ick factor for many of us. But if we don't have an
honest and open dicussion, how can we ever hope to change things?
