Default Non electric gas dryers

Have been very hard to find in my recent trips to retailers.

Is this a trend?

Just wondering. Project for 2010 or sooner...

Dryer of what? I can't imagine this being a clothes dryer since they
have an electric motor to rotate the drum and exhaust fan. Does "non
electric" mean whatever sort of dryer this is has some sort of pilot
light instead of a glowbar ignition?

Gas dryers aren't hard to find.

Non-electric gas dryers are probably much much harder.

I love it when websites provide a link for a "larger photo", that opens the
same size photo on a different page.

Just got concerned that I had not seen a single front loader with nat gas
hookup. homedepot dot com showed me some.

Have to admire LG for making one that is $500 and then another, painted a
different color, and charging twice as much. Chutzpah.

That must be why the washer and dryer that came with my house is
white.

My mother's were pink, but that was in 1957 before they could get away
with charging more.

That's funny. If you use firefox, download Image Zoom. Do it via
firefox and it does all the installatin.

It would be possible with a gas engine instead of the electric motor.

Does "non
electric" mean whatever sort of dryer this is has some sort of pilot
light instead of a glowbar ignition?

Probably not without the animal rights folk getting upset. I'm not sure
how they feel about fractions of a hamster, though.

A "Non electric gas dryer" is a rope (clothesline) stretched over a
malfunctioning cesspool.
