[papercreters] Re: perfect design mix of a papercrete

There is no such thing as a "perfect design mix".

Papercrete can be mixed to perform in a variety of different ways.

Some mixtures are better at supporting loads.
Some mixtures are better for insulstion.
Some mixtures are good plasters.
Some mixtures are a good compromise to do several things at once.

None of them is perfect, but none of them are necessarily wrong either.

As soon as one of us thinks we have the best mix for a particular use,
someone else may come up with something slightly better. This is a
good thing. It's how we learn and constantly improve.

A lot depends upon the intended purpose, and how important the various
specifications are to the performance of the final product.

Perfection? That's asking a lot!
