"...in a van down by the river"

Of course this is just "my opinion" but how messed-up will it be when we have to report all business transactions over $600. Imagine the hassle of having to request 1099's from each and every vendor.

This kind of "change" is nothing more than a one way "high speed rail" ticket to "living in a van down by the river."

Life Cycle Assessments - Another way of looking at "Green".

Here is an excellent article that drills down into the concepts of sustainable design being more than sun shades, recycled carpet, and low V.O.C. paints.

If your place of business happens to be in a pre-engineered building then you are a pioneer. If you are looking to build new, read this article and become a pioneer without spending a fortune in doing so.
