Societal concerns aside... I just hope that as technology further advances, the possibility of copying our memories onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It's one of the things I really wish I could encounter in my lifetime.<br /><br><br />(Posted on Nintendo DS running [url=http://www.leetboss.com/video-games/r4i-r4-sdhc-nintendo-ds]R4i SDHC[/url] DS BB)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15522444.post-77474994334846209872009-04-13T23:43:00.000-04:002009-04-13T23:43:00.000-04:00oh gosh, i need to forward this on. doing so now!...oh gosh, i need to forward this on. doing so now!OHmommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12712111068636100187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15522444.post-89765349529565783762009-04-09T22:49:00.000-04:002009-04-09T22:49:00.000-04:00Hi fellow mommy,Thanks for sharing how to be a "gr...Hi fellow mommy,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing how to be a "green mom".

But I have a question. I have a front loading washer. My mom always used cloth but what she would do is rinse out the diapers and put them in the washer, already filled with water and soap, to soak until the load was full. How do you manage it? Do you have front loading washer?Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01623046375096046381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15522444.post-42870039131013421292009-04-09T02:21:00.000-04:002009-04-09T02:21:00.000-04:00We have used clothe wipes from day one and only re...We have used clothe wipes from day one and only recently started to buy regular wipes (clean and go's) for the diaper bag.<BR/><BR/>The reason we used the cloth was because both of our kids were sensitive to the regular ones. <BR/>I never thought of using a soap with them though, I always just used warm water and then soaked them after. <BR/>The idea of keeping some wet in a container is fantastic!Anna-b-bonkershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11470379679830893275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15522444.post-54119748938271825912009-04-09T00:40:00.000-04:002009-04-09T00:40:00.000-04:00I plan to use cloth diapers and wipes with my next...I plan to use cloth diapers and wipes with my next one (not sure why I didn't do it with my first).

It just seemed like too much of a hassle to use cloth wipes. Seeing your system, though, has changed my mind. That sounds like something I could totally manage. Maybe I'll give it a go. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15522444.post-34187025160333104062009-04-07T20:50:00.000-04:002009-04-07T20:50:00.000-04:00Great post, and great idea.

Only question I have is, if the washclothes stay in there for too long and they are damp, could it start to smell like mold? But I guess with a baby in the house, they don't stay in there more then a few hours!Loukiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03066879990007701379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15522444.post-11128370854498468612009-04-07T20:03:00.000-04:002009-04-07T20:03:00.000-04:00Great post.

My doc also recommended just using plain water and toilet paper instead of wipes.
