Things That Don't Work
Traditionally, I have used Windex as a glass cleaner--which indeed, produces a streak-free shine on glass, as promised. (Windex is a surprisingly complex solution--not just ammonia in water.) My wife has recently been buying Clorox Green Works all-purpose cleaner, which is touted as "99% natural." (Which probably means, 99% water, 1% stuff that actually does something.) So I was using this Green Works this morning to try and clean the interior windshield of the Corvette--and Windex, it's not. For cleaning counters it does okay, but a transparent surface, it's deficiencies are grossly apparent. So I turn the bottler over to look at the ingredients list--and I see that part of the profit from this stuff goes to the Sierra Club.
I presume that Sierra Club has an official supervising the making of it, rather like how a rabbi supervises the preparation of kosher food. And yes, environmentalism and Judaism are both religions, but one of them is a real religion, and the other is a religion for those who want one that doesn't ask them to change their moral behavior.
Time to buy some Windex, and stop putting money into Sierra Club's pocket.
