Given that we *are* a Natural Building list it would seem appropriate that  
the Bale-ettes costumes be "au Naturel".

However, in the unlikely event that anyone has issues with modesty etc.,  
I'd be happy to try my hand at making some costumes (simply buying them  
would be inconsistent with NatBuild philosophy), out of natural materials  
of course.

Hemp or cotton string come to mind as possible material choices.

How hard can it be to knot some pieces of string together to make some  
string bikinis ?

Anything fancier than that and I'm afraid I'd be clueless.

I don't have any problem with 100% of the proceeds of the DVD (if it gets  
made) going to the TLS.

In fact, I would encourage it and I would further suggest that if it turns  
out to be a financial success, perhaps a series of similar multi-media  
projects be undertaken -- you know, like the long-running PBS series "This  
Old House", but it'd be "This SB House" (or such-like) to help subsidise  
TLS print edition.

The Matts + Bale-ettes performance would of course, be used throughout the  
DVD series as the theme song.
