[Cob] Got the permit - an epic event in (modern) cob history

[Ray Cirino]

you are correct sir. Let's go do it.
 The Great Challenges we now face as a species present the very opportunities 
that are giving birth to Ecological, Psychological, and Spiritual 
Sustainability.

Of course it would be Ray Cirino, our resident coblist Mystic, to be the one to 
cast this momentous event into its proper light, on the grand, epic scale that 
we are all moving towards - sustainability, evolution, peace, harmony, one more 
step towards the new Garden of Eden.  

However, I don't think Ray really meant to imply that he looks forward to 
another "disaster" to prove any point.  Bad semantics?  Maybe we should read 
Ray's post to say "we can't afford to wait for another disaster..."  Whatever 
the case, unfortunately, such sad events seem inevitable, given our culture's 
resistance to change, where we are far too comfortable with the status quo.

On the positive note - yes, this event will open doors everywhere - into cob 
buildings, radically affordable housing, freedom from the poisoned 
mortgage-financial-feudal economy.

This day will live for ever in the quest for the Garden of Eden. We need to know 
all detail on how it unfolded, because if this can be done there it will open 
doors everywhere. I can't wait for another disaster to prove the point.
