In the event that anyone out there actually wishes to discuss JonquilJans
original subject, or anything having to with making it through winter,
insulating, or weatherizing a house, start a new subject. This R-value
routine has degenerated into a farce.

Gah. Take it to email.


Yeah. Those of us with solid walls (studs with masonry under shiplap) would
like a "useful" insulation solution other than "buy a new house" which
we're not going to do, since we have/want something with a stable subfloor
lasting 100 years with no bouncing (you know, like what we already have).
That "bouncing/vibrating" crap happens in every "new" house I've ever been
in and I would never tolerate it.


Most I've been in recently aren't objectionable. If you really want
stiff floors, build on a slab. ;-) I'll take the insulation,
thanks.
