Bill keep making those pots

I saw a TV doco recently where a talented potter had dramatically cut down his output as he was a committed green and didn't think the smoke from his kiln was acceptable. It was a clean burning kiln and in the interview he talked about having to get as close to a zero impact on the planet.

While lauding his sentiment it occurred to me that his foot print would be less if he just sat at home and ate as little as possible, so as to conserve energy.

The I realised it would be less if he was dead. In fact in his world view perhaps the true green thing to do would be to dig a hole, plant native seeds in it, and then kill himself on top of them.

Bill - thanks for thinking of the planet, but I think your pottery was worth it mate. Of course you won't see this as you don't believe computers can be justified either.
