even if you work for a cheap-skate who does't like withholding, you've got a Schedule C
No, you (the worker) probably have a worker classification problem. Because someone calls you an independent contractor/Schedule C doesn't make it so. It's a facts and circumstances test that goes beyond how you're paid and go more to the level of control.
A short discussion regarding who might be an employee vs. independent contractor.
Effective January 24, 2003, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) was transferred under the Homeland Security bill to the Department of Justice. The law enforcement functions of ATF under the Department of the Treasury were transferred to the Department of Justice. The tax and trade functions of ATF will remain in the Treasury Department with the new Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau.
In addition, the agency's name was changed to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to reflect its new mission in the Department of Justice.
Bottom line, maybe this plan isn't for you.
from Newscientist: "After more than a decade of political debate, GINA bans health insurers from setting premiums or denying coverage based on the results of genetic tests, as long as customers have no pre-existing disease symptoms. It is also aimed to prevent discrimination in employment decisions."
Discrimination still could happen, but there appears to be a bit of a framework to work against it.

I too am puzzled by this "OMG, my wet clothes are producing penicillin as we speak!" FUD. I am on a time-of-use plan that provides cheaper electricity between 7pm and 7am weekdays and all-day on weekends
My point is not "OMG mold," it's "OMG, this has been damp too long, and now smells like a wet dishrag, or worse, a wet dog"
That said, nothing would probably happen for the three to four hours mentioned in the other posts, but I wouldn't let it sit more than that, especially on a hot day.
Also if it does, consider cleaning your washing machine (with bleach or similar product) and leaving the door open.
PS: why do you need your air conditioner on at all when you're on vacation?
1. Your houseplants and pets are used to living at a nice steady 70F. They can probably handle 80-85F, but it would probably be a little hard on them to go much higher.
2. A house shut up with no A/C running on a 90F day is a sure sign that no one's home.
3. To keep CowboyNeal cool.
Dryer. Maybe, if you are okay with wet clothes sitting around (mold).
MOLD? For waiting a couple of hours? You've read too many crazy articles out there "MOLD IS COMING TO KILL US ALL!".

The BBC fixed it by buying him a space heater.
One way that this does help with reducing CO2 emissions is that the exhaust of the plant is primarily CO2. Standard coal plant exhaust is still mostly nitrogen, oxygen, CO2, SO2, etc.
What does the plant do with it? Compresses it into liquid, and pipes it up to Sasketchewan. An oil company injects it into old oil fields to recover more oil.
Basin Electric CO2 Sequestration
This is where the CO2 savings come in.
The clash of ideas is the sound of freedom.
