How many project manuals, front to back, does it take to cover the equator?
And could it be done with one year, two years' of manuals?  How many trees
does it take to print all the LEEDS documents? What is the carbon print of
all the Zero Energy publications?  And a project for our Graveyard Daddy:
The Great Depository of Manuals or The Stairway to Heaven.
Reads to LEEDS,
Leland

David,

Nice, I will have to pass this terminology around in the family. My 
nephew who spent a summer working w/ us would read the manuals. He did 
not understand why I made such a big deal of it, encouraging him to do 
it, and handing him all the instructions and manuals that we came 
across. I learned a whole lot from him saying, "No, no, it says to do this."

Our water heater by the time we became engaged with it did not have a 
manual... maybe I can find one on eBay.
