Summary: If you need to wash your dishes thoroughly before putting them in the dishwasher, save the water and put them in the drying rack instead.

Author's statement:

If you need to clean the dishes before you
put them in the dishwasher, then what good
is the automatic dishwasher?  Using it 
for dishes that are already clean is just a 
waste water & electricty.
