I'm with the others... post some relevant data from INDEPENDANT RESEARCH, of
course monolithic.com is gonna put a positive spin on the dome, the sell the
thing for cryin out loud. Get some REAL research done, ALSO look at the
TURNKEY COST PER SQUARE FOOT of building a monolithic dome, vs frame
construction, and if you want to add in concrete block and log construction
as well. YOU WILL SEE WHY THERE AREN"T MANY BEING BUILT. Those that are
being built are largely for the coolness factor (and i admit they are
freakin cool!) OR they are of such a size that they ARE cheaper per square
foot (and yes LOOK AT HOW BIG IT HAS TO BE TO BREAK EVEN!!)........


Just make sure it is per USEFUL square foot, not just enclosed space as
much of the space is not useful or marginally useful.
