Mine says to do it with each load and they frequently put reminders on the
reader board at the fire station to do the same.

I remember a fireman visiting our home ec class in Jr. High. Said one day
an elderly lady complained after a dryer fire that she no longer had a fuzzy
wuzzy. What she meant by that was the lint trap. She had no idea what it
was and thought it was supposed to be fuzzy like that.
