Interesting mini-interview with Nick Rosen, a proponent of living “off the grid.”
I especially liked this quote from him:
I rather like Thoreau because he was also a part-timer. He walked back to have his mother do his washing on Fridays. For him, it wasn’t a religion- it was a beautiful philosophical experience. It wasn’t a competition to see who could wear the hairiest hair shirt.
Naturally, right below the religious greens immediately start complaining that his hair shirt isn’t hairy enough…
Update: Link fixed.
