[papercreters] paper fiber in sculpture-was DCAT

Mark P ( thanks!) sent a link to a Kibbutz.. I looked at it, and
followed the green building link.

there are cool pics of turtles and dragons for kids to play on made
of waste paper and clay, bottles, etc.

Now, they are in a real desert, so very little water to destroy or
impact the sculptures, but so fun.. there are similar sculptures at
Emerald Earth, of cob-no paper- that are kid's benches, shaped like
lizards, etc.

so lots of creativity with the same materials.

It is a bit concerning, after 12 years, to see that DCAT is not as
well known to newer builders, as to us longer in the ' green
movement'. DCAT had put out the only white papers on fire and
thermal/stress resistance for S. bale building, I hope they are not
lost to the SB world, surely not. maybe only others newer have not
heard of them. ( David E. is the key promoter )
