SB: MAYBE IT´S TIME WE GOT BACK TO THE (SB)ASICS OF LIFE

["Dane S. Judd" <dsjudd@entelchile.net>]

With all of the recent political talk,  this may be a good time to pose a
question that has bothered me for some time.  Once again, I present the
¨breathability¨ issue.

   I have read all of the archives.  I participated in threads and received
great info from illustrious list members.  (Begrudgingly, this includes
notorious moosehuggers.)  One little apparent inconsistency still keeps me
awake at night
   If a stucco of any sort permits humidity to pass either due to external
climactic conditions or due to internal humidity levels,  wouldn´t that
humidity be equally able to exit when the external conditions change?? If it
works in one direction, it should work in reverse.  .  (I have a math degree
and tend to think in black and white- I´m not very good with the Zen-grey
thing)


   Could this not explain the longevity of many stucco-covered SB homes?
