Years ago I saw a quote basically saying - structures not founded on or in soil/rock fly . . . Does anyone remember seeing one like this in a textbook? Coduto?? Just wondering.

And hope everyone had a grand Chinese New Year - this is the year of the PIG!!! Pigs fly????

Cheers

There is something in the bible about basing your life on rock versus on sand. Who ever wrote that didn't know sand is a pretty good support situation also.
 
Thanks PEinc . . . mainly agricultural aspect. I will find it someday . . . for some reason I thought it was in one of Coduto's books.
