Brick is softer than concrete so go in 1.5' or so. 1.5' seems to be a bit much. Methinks 1.5" would be more better. [g] It's actually 1.5 varas :-) BTW, In case you don't know, a vara (or is it vera?) is about as long as a meter. -- "Ministers say that they teach charity. That is natural. They live on hand-outs.
