the problems of other people's home repairs ...


This question seems rather an urgent one ... one probably doesn't want the answer to be "gas."  One of our greatest pleasures walking around the neighborhood (I'm not counting the skeletons and tombstones and spiders and skulls and environmentally treacherous synthetic webs - really, you should all have taken that stuff down by now) is seeing the "improvements," the cosmetic repairs, the wholesale refabrication, the emergency patching that people are doing on their houses - often, but not always, with an eye to putting them on the market.  Incidentally, the house next door to us - on the downhill side - will be for sale soon - anyone want to come to Los Feliz? - we're doing very well from the fruits of their remodeling, having so far netted two plant-growing wire pyramids and a very large earthenware planter from stuff that they've jettisoned.  This is not their sign - it's from a couple of streets away.  I hope the people find an answer ...
