Yawn I lived in Fargo for years and one January the highs didn't get above zero for an entire month. Dress properly, don't stumble around drunk in below zero weather, and have a backup heat source if the power goes out. Hard

From my substantial subjective experience with Vipassana meditation I have found the correlations very strong. When doing Vipassana, especially the form called "Mahasi Noting", attention will "randomly" move around duri

I live in a passive solar house with probably 10 foot overhangs on the south facing windows. I have no heat problems in the summer. Do you think sufficient overhangs would have solved the earthship problem? I also live in Montana.
