Wendy Brodie was tired of doing laundry. “I have three teenagers, and they think the Magic Towel Fairy washes and dries everything.” To save water, energy and a lot of housework she invented the Bodyflik, it's shape inspired by french curves used by draftspeople. It removes up to 75% of the water on your body, reducing towel usage and saving hundreds of gallons of water, not to mention the power and fuel required to run washers and dryers. To top it off, it's made from recycled plastic. Sometimes the simplest of ideas can make a huge difference. Available online for less than ten bucks at ::Bodyflik via ::New York Times
