Reynolds is at it again, singing the praises of push-mowers.

The technology here must have changed vastly from when I was a kid. We had a push mower for the turf in my parents' rose garden. The thing was a cast-iron bitch to use - it was hard to push and would jam at nothing. Plus, in order to do a thorough job, you had to go over every bit of grass two or three times at least. That patch of grass could not have been any more than about 20 x 20 feet. How Glenn takes on a whole half acre with his mystifies me.
