On the green house issue - Our governments are encouraging us to have Green houses. Surely if we all move into houses made of glass, there are a couple of issues. 1. I am sure that the thermal properties of the glass are not as good as those of my bricks and mortar/airgap more bricks and mortar, plaster and wallpaper. 2. have you ever tried wallpapering glass? 3. If we were to move into green houses - how long before the entire population is arrested for indecency - do they not remember that our prisons are overpopulated?

Why is you calling it "a green house" better than me saying that the octagonal tower contains an energy source that encourages the WJ to grow profusely? Besides which, it's not green (although the WJ is), and it would be a stretch and then some to call it a house. And, many people are led to believe that all sorts of things thrive in pyramids too. What claims are you making for your Green Houses and where do I get one and do they keep meat fresh and sharpen razor blades? My wife muttered something about people not throwing stones who live in glass houses, but you were talking about Green Houses (tm), no?
