With the many successes ICF have had over the recent years, it still amazes me that there are so many out there with strong negative opinions. Go to http://www.contractortalk.com/showthread.php?t=20112 to see what kind of opinons still get written on the web about ICF construction.

There were plenty of horse buggy manufacturers posting on forums decades ago that said sitting near a few gallons of gas made it too dangerous to buy an automobile too :)

Being a mega ICF fan myself I will play a little devil's advocate.  The only point the fellow made that made sense was verification of the concrete pour after the fact.  With a good consolidation and experience that would be a non issue.  In addition, with the use of SCC mix that would be even less of an issue.
