If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments?

Wow. I cannot believe this thread is still chugging along.

As for leaf blowers, what is there to like? Carbon pollution, noise pollution. Horrible inventions. What happened to good old rakes? 

Leaf blowers exist to make mundane tasks easier and to save time. They are a great invention for those that use them.

During the fall they make sense otherwise a lot of people would probably be dying from heart attacks. However during the summer when there’s no leaves it makes more sense to use a broom to quickly disperse errant leaf blades.

I believe it’s terribly inconsiderate to be revving leaf blowers sometimes two or three of them at the same time and serenading your neighbours with disturbing noise. It may not bother the person using it but it certainly bothers the people who have to listen to it.

I find people generally pretty inconsiderate a lot of times. We’re only here for like 70 years while being gradually replaced by others so why not make it somewhat pleasurable for other people while here.

What’s really ridiculous about this repeated whine of yours is that you act like they are running blowers 24/7. It takes all of a few minutes for clean up once a week.. Surprised that you aren’t calling for everyone to get on their knees and hand clip the lawn versus using mowers. The horror of it all.

Emerging well I think you just need to deal. You simply do not have the right to complain about others using such devices. Further, you dont have the right to determine when, how and for how long such devices should be used. Dont let an irritant become an obsession.
