Re: [strawbale] hallo?



Hello to the European strawbale group:

I was away last week and a ghost in my computer sent the nonsense reply at the bottom of this message......

But perhaps I should take the opportunity to announce that I am working on a new book of straw-bale home plans and design ideas.  It will be a color picture book, with about forty nice straw-bale houses from diverse regions in the U.S. and Canada.  My intention is that it will help people with design ideas, floor plans and resources -- as well as offering information about design essentials for SB, siting,  climate and budget issues.

I am working to send it to the publisher within a month, and it is scheduled to be available by spring 2003.  I hope it will be a useful contribution to the field.

PS I would like you all to know that there is great opposition to allowing our so-called president the power to invade Iraq.   This dissent is widespread, but not reflected much in the mainstream media.  Fortunately the internet makes it possible for us to get some of this message out.

Hi

Thanks for your interest in straw-bale building.

The fastest way to get useful information is probably to visit our website at www.StrawbaleCentral.com -- which has a gallery of photos of a variety of straw-bale and natural buildings.   And you'll find links to other informational sites.

There's also a Resource section, where we offer hard-to-find books and videos on the subject.    Our flyer also lists these book and video resources, and we can send it by snail mail, if you reply with your address.

We also recommend The Last Straw Journal  www.strawhomes.com , which is the International Journal of Straw Bale and Natural Building.
This quarterly Journal offers up-to-date info from around the world, including technical articles, case studies, code and testing info, human and bale resources, a calendar of workshops and more.  It really is essential to get and stay current with advances in straw-bale technologies.

The TLS annual "Resource Issue" is where you would find info on SB practitioners in your area. 
This issue has just come out! 

Best regards,
Catherine Wanek
