Closing the chapter now on my birthday. Really hope I didn't forget to mention anything or anybody. Very grateful for all of you who chose to spend the day with me.
Anyway. I pride myself on being very environmentally friendly. I live in a "minergy" house, I have no car, I put the oven on only when I put the stuff in there, I never leave lights on in a room I'm not in. I don't have a bathtub. And I sort trash as much as Zürich allows.
Which doesn't mean very much, but I collect carton to be put on the pavement outside the house once a month. Same with paper. Empty bottles goes to the bottle bank (not by themselves but with me carrying them stupid). And I wash only after 22.00 at night or on Sundays, when electricity is cheaper.
Now when a friend even more friendly to the environment was visiting, I learned that the little metal corks on my housewine cannot be thrown into the normal trash, but have to be brought to the bottle banks, whereof one contains metal trash. He ruined it for me! Now I cannot just throw it into the trash and feel good about it,'cause I know he's right. Damn!

he he, love the idea that doing the washing when electricity is cheaper is more environmentally friendly
Yes, I was thinking about that one, but isn't it better to use electricity when it's not peak time? Perhaps I should read up on how electricity plants work...
