Bumping this one up...

So is this what passes for house construction in the USA these days?

Little houses of ticky-tacky and match-sticks.

In Europe there's a running joke saying US houses are cardboard boxes...

Hey, them's fightin' words!

Seriously, houses these days made of 'Ticky Tacky,' such as the one in Rollie's photos might blow down in ten years due to the "Get it done NOW NOW NOW!" Mentality, but old 'Ticky Tacky' houses (read: 'Levittown,' and Fairless Hills Pre-fabs) will probably last forever, due to the workers actually liking their jobs with Levitt.

Is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?
