on 05.13.09

Electronics wiz Jaymi gets all excited about e-readers like the Kindle. Others ask "how is an energy sucking plastic device that goes obsolete or breaks after a couple years green?" Rob at Cockeyed and Wendell at Evil Mad Scientist have come up with the perfect compromise- the Kindling. It uses no electricity, and being made of wood it sequesters carbon dioxide.

When you are finished reading, it will, of course, work perfectly as....kindling. Available on eBay too! More at Evil Mad Scientist
