nice and find something more important to worry about.

I agree. Modern building methods use large amounts of celing
insulation and plenty of roof venting.

Where I live, in a suburb of Dayton, there is air polution and light
colored shingles end up showing black staining after 10 years. I
went with a dark brown on my house, which matches up with the
rest of the house pretty well.


These three forwarded to her also, even if it will make her think I'm
dumb.
