Interesting piece from the New York Times Home & Garden section about the use of the clothesline as a tool for using less energy - makes sense. However, this behaviour is frowned upon by many homeowners associations:
That simple decision to hang a clothesline, however, catapults me into the laundry underground. Clotheslines are banned or restricted by many of the roughly 300,000 homeowners’ associations that set rules for some 60 million people. When I called to ask, our Rolling Hills Community Association told me that my laundry had to be completely hidden in an enclosure approved by its board of directors.
