[Cob] Rammed Cob

I know it's not the norm. But as I was looking into rammed earth, I  
thought a person could make forms and pack cob into them, right? It  
seems like it would be more stable that rammed earth, from what I  
know about it. There wouldn't be worry on the walls slumping and  
lifts could be done higher. But, packing the cob mix may get rid of  
the air pockets (isn't that why cob does so well in transferring heat?).
