Just wanted to add an interesting and unusual building procedure I saw at
the Cranbury Inn, Cranbury, New Jersey - In the 18th Century, horsehair
was used for insulation.

Maybe to those of you more knowledgable about such things, this is well
known.  It was interesting to me.

The Cranbury Inn has a cut-away section showing the 18th Century
construction of the original Inn.  This has been dated by the New Jersey
Archivist - even identifying the origin of the builder based on his
construction procedure.
