The federal push toward break-even building energy is real, and the clock is ticking. The public sector will be flocking toward forward-thinking designs (and designers) like never before — prepare to rule more of the roost, or lay an egg.
Chickens. I have been thinking a lot about them recently.
I guess it’s because now that I am on the back nine of my career, I find myself pondering retirement, and in particular what I might do with myself when that time comes. And for no rational reason I can discern, I seem to think raising chickens sounds like a cool idea. A typical engineer’s career will run somewhere between 30 and 40 years. So barring a lottery win I’ll be heading out to pasture (or to the coop) somewhere between 2020 and 2030.
