    What is a Zombie?

    That doesn't really cover the threat appropriately. The new madrid is nothing to sneer at, sorry. 4 of the largest north american quakes recorded are from the New Madrid. The last set of quakes rang church bells in Virginia and shook windows as far as Washington D.C. It was felt that far away...

    Anyone hand wash their clothes?

    We did for the longest time. Our washer died (unfixable) so we had the choice of using the laundrymat or doing it by hand. Being cheap, by-hand won out. If you have kids, kid's feet get the clothes about as clean as your hands would. Just put them in the tub with soapy water & let the kids...
