The Great Dishwasher Magnet War of 2021
I intend to win this one
My wife and I have had some ferocious battles during our five-plus decades of marriage. There was the bitter Dali Booperator Coup which left us both scarred and resentful. There was the horrid Paper Towel War, which ended with an unending, uneasy truce.
There have been other skirmishes, betrayals of peace accords, treachery, and guerilla warfare. The latest flareup burst upon us because of dishwasher magnets.
Dirty, Clean, or ?
In olden days, before the advent of water conservation and energy efficiency, our dishwasher was either empty or had dishes in it. The empty state is the easiest; there are either dishes inside, or there are not. Any fool can distinguish this state.
Dishes inside can present a problem. Are they clean or dirty? You may laugh scornfully at that if you are not a Pre Rinser.
Wasting Water #1
Dishwasher instructions advise against pre-rinsing.
