"A Florida woman who has been living off the grid has had her home declared 'Unsanitary' and has until March to connect her off-the-grid home to the city water system, or face eviction."

[ED Note: Ordinances such as this are not uncommon. My own father once had a property condemned on this basis while he was in the midst of a billing dispute with a utility.]

    Easy, big fella. This is a new site, and while it's modeled after Slashdot, we're all still in the phase where we're mingling around and deciding how things work. I just signed up for an account five minutes ago, myself (whee! I have a four-digit userid).

    That said, I agree that a comment would have been more appropriate. Hopefully that will become the norm in a little while.
