[Greenbuilding] Best bang for the buck in wall insulation

[Lynelle A. Hamilton]

For true!  I'm planning on some sort of sheathing as you describe. I 
used 2" of closed cell spray foam last time over outer side of 14" 
insulated Dursiol block.  I love the house and the airtightness of it 
(assuming airtightness is a word), but it was a pricey option.
