Default caulking siding/foundation interface

Eigen,

Nothing can get in but the siding isn't supposed to keep things out,
it's supposed to shed rain. By caulking it you will seal in water and
encourage rot. Hate to say it but if you thought caulking was hard you'll
be amazed at how hard un-caulking is.

Well I guess that answers that. Glad too really, the prospect of crawling
on my back wasn't looking too favorable.
