[GSBN] Haiti

[John Glassford]

G ' day

I have just sent Martin seme photos of straw bale in Iraq built by Geoff
Lawton from the Permaculture Institute in Australia.  I also sent him some
links on the earthquake tests done by Darcy Donovan for straw bale and here
they are if you do not already have them:

Just scroll down and look at the earthquake video by Darcy Donovan.

I belong to Rotary and we are sending shelterboxes right now to Haiti see:

Our club amongst many thousands of other Rotary clubs around the world will
be raising funds for Haiti as we did for the Boxing Day Tsunami.

Kind regards
