Wow- so it is not clay after all- this is just fascinating! Amazing! "Labor intensive" could mean that people could get employed in teaching, learning, and doing this work. "Not many local contractors know how" just means that green contractors have YET ANOTHER opportunity.... "minimal poluution, locally sourced material wherever you go (dirt) and 90 per cent less embedded energy" is just screaming green cred... Put it all together and it seems like a perfect pitch for the second phase of the America Recovery and Reinvestment Act plus the incoming " cash for Caulkers" program. What say you, Eco Brooklyn? Is the state administrator for these federal funds looking for you? Earthen Floor is screamin green …

“Labor intensive” could mean that people could get employed in teaching, learning, and doing this work.

“Not many local contractors know how” just means that green contractors have YET ANOTHER opportunity….

“minimal poluution, locally sourced material wherever you go (dirt) and 90 per cent less embedded energy” is just screaming green cred…

Put it all together and it seems like a perfect pitch for the second phase of the America Recovery and Reinvestment Act plus the incoming ” cash for Caulkers” program.

What say you, Eco Brooklyn?

Is the state administrator for these federal funds looking for you?
