This is the house that got some big grants from Ohio. News channel tracked him down and did a real nice story. It was well done right up to the last phrase that says, “and that’s for the technology alone.” Ignore that (and the “before you laugh” line) and the rest is ok. I think the HO did a great job. Cool aerial shots from the helicopter.

Would'a been nice too if they mentioned the designer! Cool house (no pun intended).

My daughter was bummed they didn't mention me, too. At 8, that's the only part of the video she was paying attention for. (Ain't that sweet?!) As long as the client's happy, don't much care. Only ones that irritate me are when there's a newspaper story while it's being built and the builder will get themselves mentioned and forget about lil' ol' me. $%##%!&@ builders! rrr
showoff :)
what grants did the state provide?
Here's a past post on it. I know there's more recent info, but I cannot find it. http://forums.taunton.com/tp-breaktime/messages?msg=68837.4
http://www.journal-news.com/hp/content/news/stories/2006/07/30/hjn073106energy_s.htmlThat article talks more about the house and the grant(s). And wouldn't you know it--it lists the builder but not the designer! What did I tell you--I don't get no respect! :)
