What do you like about this subject?

Enjoy working 'on top of the world"....like designing and installing energy efficiant systems to improve homeowner's values, lower energy bills, and improve a home's look.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

Move my work from a "practise" to a "business'...something I can pass on to my family.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

A roof is MORE than shingles! If the roof system pieces are all in place and of good quality, you can make the thinnest, cheapest shngle perform like the most expensive product! It's all in the preperation!

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

The use of undocumentad spanish workers.
