The crawl space was only 24 inches, from ground level to bottom of floor joists. We brought in a conveyor belt, and 3 x 24-foot-long 4x12's. We dug out one side, poured the walls, then dug out the other side. It was an immense amount of work. The Spirit was guiding me to understand the important of "foundation". This, in turn, had an immense impact on my approach to any legal question. I only discovered "preponderance rule" later on in my legal life. We have basically demolished the IRS on the strength of that one rule. They are history. This is all mop-up now. They are going away. /s/ Paul Mitchell P.S. Mind if I respond piecemeal to your latest? There was a lot of material in there. By the way, I prefer real pictures, of real people, any day. Ads are all stylized. That one I sent was just a flash, based mostly on what you had said about your hair. It was a black-and-white half-tone in the paper, and the scanner changed it quite a bit. I need different scanner software, because it is scanning pictures at a relatively low resolution. This causes the digital image to be quite different. Please don't make too much of it. I was hoping it would draw you out. Was I right?
