Andy............I agree with you (ain't that something) My old house breathes REAL good and I wouldn't have it any other way. When I was building in Ak (80's) people were into really tight houses and all they were doing was making themselves sick. Windows up in the bedroom winter or summer, wear a hat when it's really cold. Love fresh air.
Off topic and with the deepest respect. If you throw a few breaks in your text, by hitting the Enter key, it would be much easier to read. IMHO large blocks of text are hard to read on a computer. Lines start to drift together.
As for the subject? Tar paper is OK and has a long history of satisfactory performance. Tyvec has less history and many dyed-in-the-wool carpenters are slow to change. Perhaps this is justified. Dunno.
I will have to do some research before I form a firm opinion.
