[papercreters] Re: Mold

Hi There Janoahsh;

Sorry for messing up your name before?! Thanx for the reply and YEA &
AMEN to all the convictions that seem to be molding your possible
future. It takes a great deal of maturity to articulate thoughts of such
a serious nature.

If you have not already... search out "Terra-Domes. Once my life was
greatly enfatuated with building these domes... got some first hand
knowledge of the virtues of round subterainian structures. Once I was
snowed away for 2 weeks.... It took me 12 hours on a D-8 Cat to move the
drifts enough to get home. It was and had been 20 degrees below O ...
the only heat source was a propane fridge, water heater and a few South
facing windows. When I got thru the 10' of drifted snow I found the
structure a comfortable 52 degrees inside!

Moisture issues in it were remedied by the effects of burning wood.

I hope your project has great success. A way to insure that succes is
to build a "donor". Something that will later serve as a shed, studio,
bungalo, etc. Many great surprises await at the disparity between Theory
and Application!?

See
Yaaaaa............... Bob M.
