In the January issue of PBF Magazine it shows a chart on page 14 that discribes a Waffle wall block slightly better R value than a Cinder Block wall furred out by a 2x4. I had a test done a few years back by the same lab I believe the author of the article may be associated with. In that test of a waffle wall it showed for the same three cities an R value of around R-45. So who's truth is it?

Juan,
Well lets see......The truth?......

Do you own any Enron Stock? Do you own any KMart Stock? Do you own any Owens Corning Stock? Does your Accounting Firm have the bucks to hire Paul Volker as an "Advisor" to resolve "The Truth" within their organization? Do your competitors allow their trade mark to be used as a slander towards others? Are Industry Trade Associations promoting certain products within your industry to their benefit, in violation of Anti-Trust laws? Have your liberties as an American been tramped on by the current White House Administration in the name of security and "terror protection" for its people? One only has to look closely to see what the "Truth" is, or can you please tell me what the definition of "is", is? In the scope of things, your claim of an alleged "rigging" of the facts, seem trivial at best, no disrespect intended..... By the way, the Super Bowl in New Orleans was listed as the most secure place in the world today? Thats a scary thought too.... Armed Soliders with M-16's roaming the streets? Oh and by the way, your worried about some R-Value test on some waffle block vs.Cinder Block? Buddy, I am not sure the truth is ever going to be the same, is it?
