Perhaps that's why you believe you're a "power consultant" despite all
the undeniable evidence that you're a nitwit. Samples here

Your problem is that I *do* comprehend your "process". I've known
quite a few BS artists, all of whom were smarter than you.

I see. So a "design" need not be based on numbers then? Too funny,
seems like I remember somebody singing a different tune now and
then...

Regardless, why not post your "guess"? A home that doesn't require AC
in 115F would be remarkable. So why not at least write out the average
daily temperature, the highs and lows, length of summer, and the
maximum interior temperature of this "design"? In plain English, how
does magic mass stay cool during a sizzling summer, yet need to be
heated in a mild winter? Why did you offer the details of this
"guess" to Daestrom in a public forum, but then insist on a
non-disclosure agreement? I'm thinkin' that one answer would suit all
the questions - because the story is classic ghinius BS, exactly like
the 20 liters of fuel per week/fortnight nonsense.

Is this the same 40 years of experience that enables you to declare a
single rheostat 150A, 200A, 150 ohms, and ohms? Or do you have a
different 40 years of experience during which you were honest and
competent?

I've heard the same claim from owners of single-wides in the desert.
"Does not require" is classic ghio-speak for "if I don't give them the
details then they won't be able to see through the story".
