The Islamic fascists want to move back into caves. They're on to something too. There was a time when it was fadish to build your home in a big pile of dirt. Modern cave dwelling. There's one down the road from us. Very energy efficient. If you're living in an actual cave your construction cost is substantially lower. I saw there's a new building fad starting [primarily in CA]. There are all these cargo containers that come from China and since we have nothing to sell, they are stacking the empty cargo containers in CA. Some architects have started designing homes based on using the containers as modules. Many of the containers are insulated and have wood floors; reducing sq ft construction costs by one half. All that time we spent as children playing in refrigerator or washing machine cartons came in handy for a new life style. jttmab
