Only problem for the clever frugal people with little money is they will not be able to build with PC if they can't afford an architecht or engineer to be able to get their modest structure approved by the building code people.










 









"There isn't much to
be learned from this article, only another "green"
couple spending way too much money per sq. ft. and using
information on PC that has been written about for many years
and implying that it is all new "

Donald Miller..I agree.....The only advantage is
that  awareness  is spread about this material for people
to consider seriously.
I agree the cost is prohibitive..I ran into so many
people in the straw bale building world from 1999-2006  who
built $400K SB houses..all of them wanting to be green, and
"showing" others how to live..an oxymoronic  goal
as far as I could see..most people didnt have that money to
spend on a  3500 sq ft SB monsterhouse  full of art pieces
..but the magazines didn't make money showing little
huts of SB either..who would advertise their fancy green
products to known frugal types??

same thing here, no one will be buying drywall,
or $400 sink taps I think for t heir PC home,  ..but the
GOOD is that it opens people's awareness and as Ben
Franklin said" it takes 12 times of exposure about a
product or service for people to say" oh..this might be
for me, I better look in to it" (paraphrased)

the clever frugal types will catch on and learn
more on their own.
