<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi John, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>thanks for your approval. Actually this part is
just an internet collection, the other part for Syria had been more specific.
The only question there is there experiences with gypsum inside. There are
critical voices with respect to moisture behaviour and using cement outside on
cob seems to be terribly risky.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>For lime I found this document <EM><FONT size=3

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>St. Astier has some useful informations and might
be of help. <A

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Its true there are small producers and there lime
is just a bit different, sometimes even much better than St. Astier. Its like
with wine ;-)))</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hope this helps,</FONT></DIV>
