Did you miss the part where I said "for any given construction method"? 
  Take the same 2-liter bottle, remove top and bottom, slice it 
lengthwise, and flatten and you have a much larger window.  It also 
requires much less weather sealing, and you can open it.

No room on the walls _is_ a good reason to use skylights.


'thieves'?  now who isn't being serious?

And can you send me a picture of the buildings cheeks and jowls?


Thank You Kindly,

Corwyn
