Back in stone age, detroit and detail shops used to use end-of-lifecycle
cloth diapers, from diaper services. Do they even make and sell cloth
diapers any more?

Yes, they do. My wife sometimes buys them to embroider on as a gift to a
new mother for use as a "burping towel". Rare to see one used as a diaper
though.

I don't know, but my mother used my diapers to dry dishes until I was
48 years old. I think that is when the last one wore out. They are
known to be very obsorbant. :)

Maybe they lease them. I'm sure there are diaper services in some
parts of town.

I think that was why we had to have an automatic clothes washer,
because of the diapers.

The stuff in disposeable diapers is the same thing in the bottom of
little meat trays underneath the meat, in the meat department, right?
