A few years back.
Back when this incarnation of the Papercreters group was still in diapers. We invited Alan Stankevitz of daycreek.com to come and be a featured guest on a live interactive text chat. He is one of the pioneers that helped develop and popularize the use of paper pulp in Cordwood Mortar.
A copy of that entire text chat is still available for anyone to read in the Papercreters Files section.
Here is a link.

And... Yahoo being the unstable system that it is will probably chop up that long link to make a mess out of it as it has done countless times before.
So... I'm going to go ahead and make a shorter clickable link leading to the same file for everyone's convenience and to defiantly spit in Yahoo's eye.

Take THAT Yahoo. You can't stop us from sharing information. You can only make it more tedious.

Also common is that they add sawdust to their mixes. They do not report shrinkage issues. (Would be rather important in a cordwood structure. :)
