In responsing to Aja Leafe's article on ceramic houses my first impression was that the article, being about construction practices, could use more pictures to illustrate concepts easily represented visually. The introducation to the piece dows do well in outlining the subject's main points. I feel that the introduction would be even more explainatory by going into greater detail about how the house is physically constructed. Though this information does appear later in the article a short synopsis of it would be helpful in visuallizing the construction more clearly from the start. A good point was brought up in the introduction that I would have liked to see followed up on more in the body of the document. This is referring to the earthquake resistance of the structure. How is it earthquake resistant and why? Has houses been through earthquakes? How big where they and how did the houses fair? I am particularly interested in this, because I am from earthquake country and like to be informed about the structural soundness of varies construction methods. Overall an informative and ingaging article. Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Sia82" sierra —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sia82 (talkcontribs)
