LEED Exam
I have been spending all of my spare time the last couple of weeks studying to take the exam to become a LEED accredited professional. For those of you who don’t know, LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. Currently, this is all the rage for public and commercial buildings. In very simplified terms, it is a way to design buildings, and the site around them more sustainibly that traditional practices. All kinds of things are looked at such as energy consumption, daylighting, off-gassing, material selections, landscaping etc. Projects have to earn a certain number of points to achieve various certification levels. Of course, the higher the certification level, the more “green” the building is. This all has positive merits of course, and is the way things should just be done. It should be the standard, rather than an option.
Anyway, this is no easy test to study for. This is a complicated program, and the test itself is not open book. I don’t think I have studied so hard since I took my licensing exam way back when. The test is this Friday, so I will let you know how I do. Fortunately, you do get the results right away.

I have been browsing onilne greater than three hours these days, yet I by no means discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours. It’s beautiful value sufficient for me. In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made just right content material as you did, the internet will be much more helpful than ever before.

I don’t think you do.@Laura: Perhaps I did have some pent-up rage that found an outlet after someone in our group that year told me the name for that phenomenon. Alas, you were the unfortunate victim.@Gavin: Comments like that are why I write this blog.@Stacie: Feelings now 100% resolved, thank you!
