They did the interviews months and months ago so I don't even remember who
they interviewed and I haven' t seen the tape yet.

We had  money in the initial budget for furniture for the commonhouse dining
room, living room, and basic kitchen stuff, which is why it looked so good
last summer. We avoided the stage where everything is donated and
mismatched. The donations we have now add variety.

The geothermal heat pumps are fabulous when they work. Very inexpensive,
quiet, even -- summer air conditioning bill was $25 one month last summer.
But we still don't have the bugs out. If there are any experts out there we
would love to hear from them. There aren't a lot of them in this area.
