Pea gravel is cheap. It's also the lowest "energy-content" material on earth. Well, after such a bold thrust into the dialectic of materials, I should be hard pressed to question your line of logic. Pea gravel it is then! Pea-gravel. America's neglected material. Unfortunately, though, the largest pea-gravel mines are to be found in the Mandalay area of Burma. Where many thousands of pea-gravel miners are enslaved, some going down into the depths of pea-gravel shafts, never again to see the light of day. Breathing toxic levels of choking pea-gravel dust, braving the ever imminent threat of pea-gravel instantaneous combustion. Care would have to be taken to assure that Burmese pea gravel does not find its way into the U.S. supply chain, what with human rights considerations.
