Kestrel, it's not like he's wrong, honey. Yeah, we do have choice here, but you don't seem to be respectful of others'. I mean, really? We're calling lazies? He gave you information you didn't have, and you went all Captain Planet ecoJW. Not an argument. At least Slomo presented one. How lazy is it to put forth the information he did, when someone else came behind him with information saying disposables get a slight edge? Isn't it lazier to just assume?
The jury is still out as to rather cloth is ecologically better, particularly because of the water required to launder them, among other things, but they're both bad.
For me, cloth is the better choice, economically, sensory wise, and psychologically. I have bad experiences with disposables.
I like knowing that everything in my diapers, rash preventative wipe solution, and the like, I got to pick. I don't have a problem with polyester, but I don't feel like they give me enough information about what's in super absorbent polymers. We're getting closer with an equivalent, called Zorb. If you dig, you'll find out all it is is the fabric fluff many people already trust, blended differently, and backed with stay dry polyester.
