Stuff, article.
Do you own stuff, or does the stuff own you?

Another interesting viewpoint about "stuff" and how to reduce it from Bruce Sterling at www.viridiandesign.org you need to stick with the article as it takes him a while to get through his points.

I wonder, in the 19th century didn't people favor wardrobes over closets?

Loved this one :

"Every thing you own takes energy away from you. Some give more than they take. Those are the only things worth having."

I love how these people think that we're all like they are. Well not everyone is. The kind of people he's talking about are the types who buy a painting for the signature.

Thanks Mike for the article you suggested. :)

Jim,

I'm not so sure. The town I live in is clearly working class, no original art being sold here. But there's still quite a market for, say, cheap figurines of puppy dogs and such.
