The idea of building two separate walls with insulation between them might
sound interesting to anyone who wants 3 ft. thick walls.... but there is
one great danger in this system. It was suggested earlier that loose straw
could be used for infill. This idea makes all my hair stand on end (Right,
looks funny...). In case of a fire starting somewhere inside this wall, it
will act as a chimney, or blowtorch, call it what you like. Fires are known
to happen in houses of all kinds.... Remember Murphy´s Law?
