My opinion regarding hotels who require special notification to change
linens/towels during a multi-day stay because they are "concerned about the
environment" is that they are serving up a load of bullsh*t.

They want to reduce their costs.

Give me a discount and I will consider it.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.

I understand your frustration. There's a definite feeliing that
they
are blowing a tremendous amount of smoke. This is one of those
"win win" situations in which it actually is "environmentally
friendly"
for them to not needlessly was linens and towels. They aren't
lying about that part. Of course their interest in being
environmentally
friendly is that it will save them a boat load of money.
