At the start of every semester, I go to my alma mater's campus bookstore. I review the course listings, pick out a couple classes that sound interesting and then buy the required books for those classes. English, history, computer science, philosophy, math, engineering, psychology... all at your fingertips. Good Questions: How To Start a Book Collection? |

I live on the first floor of a three-story house. The apartment on the 2nd and 3rd floors has central AC, which trickles down to my place. That plus open windows plus a naturally shady lot means I've never had to use my window AC unit in the three years I've lived there. AT Survey: How Do You Cool Down? |

I like this post. A plus plus plus. I enjoy reading about the interdisciplinary research that protects my family members serving in the military. The controversy between Canada and the U.S. over who developed the pattern first is also an interesting issue. Look!: Digital Camouflage |

My next door neighbor growing up had a plastic Shamu head from Sea World that fitted over the faucet. When the mouth was open, the water ran normally. When closed, the water was redirected out of Shamu's blow hole, turning the sink into a water fountain. It was probably an overpriced $4 from the Sea World gift shop back in the mid-80s.

Take a deep breath there, boss. I'll try to keep your personal preferences in mind for future posts. I didn't realize the word 'lay' was offensive. I hear it used all the time in casual and professional conversation. AT Green Home: Call For Questions |

Easy, chief. When the commentary veers into the realm of science on this design blog, I don't see why I shouldn't post on the topic. Nobody here is uneducated, we just have different areas of expertise. When I'm unfamiliar with a topic, I pick up a book or take a class. That's why I read blogs like AT, to fill in gaps in my own knowledge and experience. If you'd like some recommendations for science books geared towards the lay person, send me an email and I'll see if I can dig something up for you. Later. After work.

Oh I'm definitely a snob about science, much the way designers are design snobs. You'll notice I don't offer design advice since I have no knowledge whatsoever about design. AT Green Home: Call For Questions |

Patrick, when you pay me a crappy salary and throw spitballs at me, then I'll teach you junior-high level science. ;) AT Green Home: Call For Questions |

A hidden key also comes in handy when you're 100 miles away from home and you suddenly remember you left the front window open. On more than one occasion, I've had a friend use the spare key to get in and close the window. The Smallest, Most Useful Thing: My Hidden Key |

I bought a rolling cart with shelves, drawers and a butcher block top from Lowes three years ago that has held up beautifully. The rolling feature is nice for when we have parties and need to move it out of the way or even into another room for serving purposes.

You're really into telling people what they should or shouldn't do, huh. Pappelina's Plastic Woven Rugs |
