ParticipantI’m with disimilar on this. The whole fake grass thing seems less like a real solution and more like a fad. Why not fake trees and a plastic dog too? I suspect that a few years from now everyone will be trading tips on how to tear this stuff out. It will be looked on like shag carpets and avocado-colored appliances. We live surrounded by plastic, do you want your yard to be one more plastic place? And don’t get me started on the chemicals, lead, etc.
There is so much wonderful landscaping that can be done with drought tolerant plants. Think of that yard as a canvas! Do something real with it! And you can always have a *small* real lawn for kids to play on, to take a nap on, etc.

ParticipantI’ve been lurking here since whenever Rich was still charging for the full content. Not even sure how long ago that was…..I find it hard to imagine a world without a housing bubble, we’ve all been knee-deep in this for such a long time.
Anyway, thanks to everyone for all the interesting postings over the years, most of all Rich of course.
I’ve been a “proper” member since, well, today. Not sure why that took so long!
