- What's a brick?
- CinderblockMany years ago a product called cinderblock was made from coal fire residue. It was similar to standard concrete block. In many cases, over time, it proved far less satisfactory. One big problem was degradation in a wet environment. It would get sort of mushy and...

- Are we acting like silly fuels?
- There is a steady flow of news these days about the drawbacks of our energy "system." The bad news seems to flow like...greenhouse gas, or even coal ash during a downpour. America's natural gas reserves are increasing as more and more deposits are found. The catch: fracking...

- Hellacious wallboard--take 2
- Hellacious wallboard--take 2Sulphate is rock stableReally a shame that a blog which started well gets tained by fear mongering: Gypsum is used in wallboard globally.

- Hellacious wallboard--take 2
- The nasty wallboard emitting H2S (hydrogen sulphide, a gas) is apparently spread around North America. The Canadians are now complaining about it. I blogged about this latest Chinese import to raise health questions. The stuff was apparently imported from 2001 to 2007. One estimate:...

- That's not a rotten egg, it's just my wallboard venting
- Apparently hundreds of homes getting new wallboard in 2005 and 2006 were dealt a rotten batch of wallboard, as in rotten eggs. The Chinese-originated wall board apparently vents sulphur compounds. That in turn does nasty things to pipes, air conditioners and humans. So far the problem has...
