<DIV>I have just discovered and read John's article <I>Building Science for

<DIV>A great thanks, John, for writing this. It is
a succinct summary that should be handed to every architect,
contractor and subcontractor working with straw, explaining some of the
detailing and the reasons for it that are still often a struggle on straw bale
job sites. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>It even includes a photo of a very leisurely D. Eisenberg looking like
he's either waiting for sleep to overtake him or settling in for a long, deep
conversation on some philosophical topic. </DIV>
