Dean and everyone else,
	I think most of us who are into earth building would agree that in  
order to live within walking distance of amenities and such there  
will have to be a shift in the human psyche. Those who are interested  
should be concerning themselves with "converting" the general  
population to "accept" earth buildings as "desirable". If this  
doesn't happen we will forever be outcasts of society and will  
forever be battling for something as ridiculous as what we choose to  
live in. If you want to build with Earth, do a lot of research on how  
"they" want you to build (codes), and build way above their standards  
and they will start talking to others about how they know somebody  
that lives in a mud hut and it's the most comfortable house they've  
every been in, but most of all it is a better quality house than what  
we're used to living in. If you build, at least your friends and  
neighbors will see it and they are bound to tell their friends. It's  
a snowball that is gaining recognition. "Are you a part of this  
snowball?" is the question.
