one more "other thought"Becky Myton bmyton at ccmail.uwsa.eduMon Oct 14 09:13:12 CDT 1996
Sorry, I forgot to add this in my last post. Yesterday I was rereading the ingredients on my usual brand of kitty litter, "Natural Choice" (prior to dumping in the box, wise-guys, I *do* have better reading material at home!:) ). This stuff is made with bentonite clay instead of concrete (which a cat-fancier publication told me was in most clumping litters). There's usually a strawbale debate about using concrete in plaster coats, with most opinion holding against because of its unbreathing nature. In know bentonite clay can be used as a waterproof underlayment to living roofs, but what would it do powdered in the finish coat of plaster? Would there be any advantages, or would this just have all the problems of concrete in another medium? Becky Myton
