Sorry, but my set of edits were NOT "minor." I checked that box by mistake.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Tvbarn (talk • contribs) 17:02, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"recycled"[edit]

"Instead of using conventional (and energy-consuming) recycling methods, however, Reynolds takes the discarded item and uses it as-is."

the word "recycled" has increasingly been used incorrectly in conventional conversation. that doesn't, however, make it correct. in order for something to be RE cycled, it must be cycled through some process, again. it means to be processed again, not reused. reduce, reuse, recycle. words mean things. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.162.146.126 (talk) 02:07, 11 October 2008 (UTC) This is absolutely silly and could not be more incorrect! Words do indeed "mean things" and apparently you have not grasped the fact that words have more than one meaning in almost all instances. For your benefit I have retrieved the meaning of the word recycled from the antiquated dictionary gathering dust on my desk. re·cy·cle tr.v. re·cy·cled, re·cy·cling, re·cy·cles 1. To put or pass through a cycle again, as for further treatment. 2. To start a different cycle in. 3. a. To extract useful materials from (garbage or waste). b. To extract and reuse (useful substances found in waste). 4. a. To use again,: recycle aluminum cans; recycle old jokes. b. To recondition and/or adapt to a new use or function: recycling old warehouses as condominiums.[reply]

So hop on off your pedestal and learn to constructively communicate your ideas without a misguided lecture on the definition of words. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.17.201.107 (talk) 16:40, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

List of publications[edit]

This was previously worded as a set of wiki pages. This was confusing to the reader as these are actually commercial publications available through Amazon et al.

TerryE (talk) 18:00, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article says that all publications are available online. Does that mean that you can download them for free, or that you can simply order them from online bookstores? If they are downloadable--please post a link. Glederma (talk)

Copyright[edit]

You can't copyright a word. You can trademark it, but not copyright. The claim in the article is dubious because of this, and is uncited to boot. Yworo (talk) 05:11, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Earthship Biotecture" is a LLC Aigan (talk) 13:34, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And this means what? Being an LLC doesn't automatically protect the name in any way, except that no-one else in the same state can use the name for their LLC. Yworo (talk) 15:20, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Birthplace[edit]

Years ago, in pottery barn or some similar store, there was a book profiling houses of different styles around the world that profiled one of his earthships. The birthdate and place of each architect, along with their name, was included with each house. His birthplace was listed as New Albany, Indiana, USA. 2603:6011:A400:259:7DE2:BF0F:C4EA:F114 (talk) 18:17, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
