some very, very interesting things in the 'comments' section of Treehugger.com, a well known lefty 'environmental' website.
It appears that even some 'progressive types' are catching on..Good for them.
In other home related news, this stay at home Dad is dealing with contractor hell. My ceiling above the dinig room table fell due to my dumb ass putting an AC unit in the swetering heat of the upstairs room, which caused condensation to travel 4 or 5 feet down a beam into the insulation. Doh! Already the shenanigans begin with the first contractor~ who shows up late, takes an hour and half 'paid trip' to the Lowes to get drywall, doesnt finish the job, has to leave early and wants a check. This is the 7 th time I have had this experience with a natural raised 'American' contractor. However, the roof that the Mexicans put on my rental unit 6 years ago is still going strong (knock knock ), they showed up, put in a 12 hour day on the hot roof, ate lunch on site, billed me fairly and finished quickly.
The American contractor showed up with a huge musical clef tatooed on his forearm....And throughout our day long 'adventure' revealed he was thrice divorced with 3 kidsand living at home with his parents at 36...
I love hearing the mexican radio staions and the sound of power drills and hammers, and the aroma of beans and tortilla's cooking on the flatbed....
