#1 If I was a more hard-hearted sort I would nominate them for Rachel Corrie Pancake awards. But I just have to have a little sympathy for folks so crazy they regard living on an ironing board and pooping in a bottle as a vacation. Like polygamy, their crime is its own punishment.

#2 If this doesn't say "Hire me!" on a resume, then nothing does. Well done mom, dad and $20,000/year of your retirement money.

#3 Avian flu is going to be very hard on such people. In fact, I would be surprised if there is a Berkeley afterwards, not just slums with white "X's" painted on the doors.

#4 The simple answer is -- in a container that is then lowered on a rope. But because they are extremely ecologically minded, there's more to the story. Here's the poop: "We are keeping the defecation and giving it to our friend Burlap," Ayr said. "He takes it to a secret location where it is turned into compost to grow more trees."

Burlap: "so I've got that going for me ....which is nice"

#5 Tell them they won't cut the trees down with one provision. They stay in them forfuckinever. They come down, so do the trees...

#6 I like it tu. Maybe install a webcam there to make sure of no cheating and for entertainment purposes. I for one would like to see Burlap and his bag.

#7 And of course to be truly one with nature they should be buck-naked.

After all clothing is made from plants, animals, and petroleum products right?

Better eat only what the tree is willing to provide to its guests. Don't want to use Gasoline or electricity (made from fuels...) or nuclear power right?

BTW - how are you heating that thermos of coffee? A fire (burn wood) or electric stove (where does the electricity come from?).
