Cob: Re: RE:cob in OH

[Ric Allan]

I would, and will...

Like everything else it involves giving thought to the design and execution,
building passive functionality in in coordination with site constraints and
peculiarities.  Cob is a material, not a strictly deliniated product with
few design possibilities.

Also, there's a world of difference between the climate in Cleveland and
Cincinnati....  Ohio is not that small!
