Agreed, I'm a happy modern human that isn't particularly worried about potential harms from chemicals or GMOs. I do though use baking soda and vinegar for my hair and its so much better than using shampoo and conditioner. Aggressi

I was interested by this but couldn't find anything about single piece doors being illegal. Being from California I've lived in a few places where these types of doors are common.
