Subject: SUNROOM - NIGHT VISIONS Pssst,
All is still. It's
almost midnight this fine Friday night. A light breeze blowing; warm; a few
scattered clouds; the moon in the SE.
I'm having my last
cup of coffee, and smoke of the day under the stars...the sunroom panels erected
but a few days ago, though just that - panels, do give a sort of sense of
security already...they are quite substantial...a study in themselves
also.
To share this
moment with you, I took this photo...rather unique I'd
say:
 It's at this point
in the construction, when it's realized what a fine structure this will turn out
to be. It's also when one gets interested in the
plans.
For me, I guess
it's what sold us on the Sunroom, and that's its peak, with those nice
triangular, and quadrilateral windows...it's height also lending to hanging a
nice fan.
The room's glory is
in that peak, and you envision getting the maximum possible height as the
plans show. I shouldn't get anxious, but that's how old sailors are...we worry
about the most mundane things.
In the meantime,
and I have nothing to do with this, but there are some varmints out there in the
still of the night. I'll introduce them to you here:
 Hi,
I'm the resident killer squirrel...attics are my delight!
 Mine
too!
 Me too! Ha
ha!
However, we have
stuffed these accesses to the attic with some plastic sheeting, and in one case,
a small throw rug, but how effective that will be remains to be seen. There's
always something...isn't there?  These openings are
necessary in this point of the construction.
 Eventually, the
overhangs in their entirety will have to be removed, leaving quite large
accesses for these varmints...not to mention rain.
Whoa is me! The
dreaded rain.
Hmmmmmm.

Subject: TERRIFIC PLANS. THOUGHTS ON DOME HOMES Hello
VP's name,
I have been
studying the Sunroom Plans, and I am genuinely impressed.
Ordinarily I don't
suppose too many people pay much attention to the plans...I wouldn't have if it
weren't for the work load I can imagine you're facing. These lapses in
construction have afforded me the opportunity to compare the plans to
the end product at my leisure, and it sure is interesting.
The
materials are impressive...the Internet giving high marks for what
your company has chosen to use in the Sunroom's construction.
Ships, and their
construction I'm familiar with...land structures, like houses never appealed to
me, always considering their construction minimal when you see the devistation
like the recent tornado in Kansas.
Seeing what's being
put into my sunroom, and how it's being used, gives me a certain
confidence...your website's declaration of it being impervious to Category Four
Hurricane's ( winds up to 150 mph ) isn't far-fetched...I believe it could
withstand that. The house may be gone, but not the sunroom. Ha
ha.
If there is one
thing as a sailor now retired after thirty-seven years at sea, and having been
in countless storms, is why, when it's been proven, we don't see more attention
given to building Concrete Monolithic Dome Homes. They are Tornado-proof;
fire-proof; and bug-proof. Has Nice Guys Corp ever thought of getting into
that field of home, and industrial building. It has to be the structure of the
future.
With the weather
people predicting more, and stronger storms with forecast climatic changes, and
the loss of life associated with these timber, and tar paper homes called
buildings, I'd think soon the acceptance of "round" over "square" will soon be
the norm. Nothing like getting in on the ground floor.
I do realize that
the Lumber Lobbyists aren't interested in safety, but soon someone is going to
site these Dome Homes as the only answer.
Whatta ya
think?
Carl
