"RESIDENTS of a model housing estate bankrolled by Hollywood
celebrities and hand-built by Jimmy Carter, the former US president,
are complaining that it is falling apart.

"Fairway Oaks was built on northern Florida wasteland by 10,000
volunteers, including Carter, in a record 17-day "blitz" organized by
the charity Habitat for Humanity.

"Eight years later it is better known for cockroaches, mildew and
mysterious skin rashes."

I don't see how volunteers could be responsible for the cockroaches...

That's what happens when particle board and wafer board are used in
house construction. I can't imagine why a lot of codes allow the damned
stuff - the second it gets moist, it's done for.
