Phil,

Sort of a self made earth home. Those earth homes are very cool. Well very 
warm in winter, cool in summer.  but not the same without windows. They 
have tubes but sunsets and sunrises aren't there. I'd be interested in 
more info. You got a name I can google? So you operating the ferris wheel 
or Tilt-a-whirl.

Say Brad,

Speaking of house building, several years ago, before moving into this 
house
23 years ago, a friend of mine ran across this guy who build a house of
3,000 square feet for under 20,000 dollars.  The walls were about three 
feet
thick and it was some type of mud mix which harden like brick.  You could
literally heat the entire 3,000 square feet with a 100 watt light bulb 
plus
what heat came off the hot water tank.  No fooling.  He was written up in
the paper.  He would actually allow you to come to a job site where he was
working and he would teach you how to do it by yourself.  Then he would 
sell
you the supplies.  My friend is a realtor and he seriously thought about
getting into the business.  He's sorry now that he didn't.  Denver 
approved
his design and authorized that type of home to be built in most areas of
Denver.  So I wasn't kidding about those log cabin kits they sell.  I've
been thinking about running away with the circus anyhow.

Phil.
