Line drying is a stupid idea. My mom did it out of necessity when I was a kid, but like most "green ideas" it'll crash on the rocks of reality. Bugs in your nice clean clothes, bird poop, having to drop what you are doing to pull in partially dry clothes before the rain starts, not being able to dry your your clothes at all during a rainy week, etc.
Our time is worth far more than the cost of the electricity to run the dryer so we can always have clean dry clothes on our schedule, not "Mother Nature's".
