Here's a clever way to keep track of how old the coffee is, using two foam cups. Good idea, huh? This was seen at a nurses station in a hospital in Louisville, Kentucky. Redditor Jackytar saw it and decided to try this out at the emergency room where he works. Lo and behold, here's what happened:
More proof that nothing is so foolproof that a better fool can't find a way to mess it up. The day shift blames the night shift, and vice versa. Link

Good stuff.
Keep on at it, internet.
Why not actually set up something a bit more permanant that makes him reliant on the land and what it has to offer instead of dumpster diving and depending on friends to feed him. If he's already doing that then meh.. I didn't read the article :P
The article never claimed that he renounced all material things or services (those are still made with money) - it's just that he himself has been living for the past decade without using currency.
@ForReallyReal, your analogy is terrible and doesn't fit the situation at all. Everyone can be a vegan if they chose to be. No problems there. Everyone can't stop using money. Or, to be more precise, everyone can't stop using a means of exchange. Classic barter went away because it was too cumbersome; you had to hope/pray that the person who wanted what you had to trade had something you needed in return. There will always need to be a medium of exchange. Now, whether that medium should be inherently worthless monopoly money or something with intrinsic value that will hold its buying power over time and that politicians cannot debase is another discussion.
