Chat at the mat

Kulcha is found in places where people need to be in order to continue to be. Due to some unintentional remodeling, time has been spent sitting at the laundromat watching dryers spin. The group of people that hang howdt on early sunday morning are a sub-selection of working poor in a rural micro-urban environment. They know what they know about making ends meet and the five dollars to get clean clothes is worth a whole lot - but appearances are what they are.

I gather that there is a science to laundry that makes the whole thing flow smooth, but i haven't had to deal with detergent for quite a while - graduate student daze. Somehow - it demonstrates another world howdt there where people live that is completely detacted from the world i live in normally. Not being in the televideo loop - i didn't grok the language the locals spoke - but seeing as how everybody is the product of the same school system, i have fear that real solutions will not come about on the time frame necessary to deal with the problems. But, it shouldn't matter to the mat set - as long as our clothes are clean. Chose the time specifically to avoid the teeming masses - anyone up that early was headed to church. rural america doesn't do sunday morning - ghost towns about for a few hours, once a week.
