Okay, here's the rant

Why does it make sense that we have to pay to get our "green" rating? What incentive is that for people to build right? I agree that the oversight group needs to get paid, but doesn't our country want people to build green? You'd think we'd get some tax credit or something for this, but no. We get a big zip. And, we get to pay extra for the privilege of building right, and not chump change, either. OK, I'm done now.

We're in the middle of a sleet and freezing rain weather pattern, so things are at a standstill. More tomorrow when I stop being mad at my country's stupid environmental management.
