<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Paul, thank you, about time it's all put in
proportion. There are many ways to "skin a rabbit"- we all have our pet
ideas but it's better to be a little bit "green" than not at all. Surely
pragmatism must rule unless you are a fully committed to the "knit your own
sandals" brigade. Recently I have been reading the first two lines of the
e-mails and hitting the delete button.</FONT></DIV>

Strawbale Building,ESBG and the share of experiences</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Hello all.
<DIV>I have followed all the last weeks episodes and discussions and during
that time have also followed some similar if not so heated issues on Face
book. I would just like to say that we shouldn't forget that everyone here
wants the same thing, and that is to simply use natural materials in buildings
and make all buildings healthy and energy efficent. We all have a degree of
differents skills and enthusiasm. The thing that hits me the most is peoples
tolerance or intolerance of each other and their different ways. Please be
more tolerant, be more trusting of each other and more helping towards each
others ideas and ways. It will help us to move things forward musch faster and
with greater strenght.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Its all good what we are all trying to do and achieve, no one has to be
better of further ahead than the other, and even the younger of us have ideas
for the older more experienced ones among us and yes can learn a lot from you,
but you can also be open and learn a lot from us. This is supposed to be a
NATURAL community afterall.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Just what I feel has to be said. </DIV>
