Since the invention of the washing machine, we have rejoiced that laundry can be done in much less time and with much less physical energy than before.  But Tate has come up with an even simpler method that will save even more time and energy....

Tate emerged from his room last week with some wrinkly clothes that I suspected were drug out of the hamper.  So I asked, "Tate, did you get those from your dirty clothes?"

"Well, yes."

"You can't do that, go back and change, " I demanded.

To which he responded, "It's okay mom, I blew all the dirty off of them."

There you have it!  A simple blow will now do the trick =)
