Progress on using old tires are *rolling* along. 
CW> Are the old cabooses still available?
Not very well insulated, expensive to move...
...unless you live on a siding. 
CW> What about "sod" ? Our western settlers used it. Old wine tanks ?
Western settlers didn't have to deal with planning commissions and
building codes. 
CW> Geodesic dome ?
They're not cheaper than conventional methods, just different.
CW> Underground (hmmm)
Move to Colorado and buy a mine.

You're welcome. 
Happy homing....
