Leafblowers seem to me to be just another way to waste fuel and make a lot of noise. So you create a big pile of leaves, so what. Though I accept there is some value in just charging in and messing up them again, me being the sort of person who cannot resist kicking up piles of leaves at this time of year. And if you ask me, there’s a guy who’s not creatively engaging in the work. (Quite a lot of the audience in my lecture looked the same way too this afternoon, so I’m not knocking him particularly.)
