where the wood breathes better. so, wood gets -- water gets behind stucco. the worst dry rot is always behind a brick or a stucco facade. >> brick has a special problem and a special reason for you to make sure that it is waterproof and that's because it has metal fasteners that keep the brick attached to the building. if the fasteners rust, the brick is just sitting there and in an earthquake the whole brick can fall off. >> you should always have a six-inch separation between the lowest shingle or piece of siding and ground contact. and that should be a concrete foundation there. >> so it's probably -- there probably is a foundation but they figured out a way to extend those all the way down to the ground which is a problem. so the reason you want to have it up from the ground is that we have a lot of water splash in heavy rain and they're going to get wet and also that what happens is water through capillary action and other methods will actually get sucked up through -- behind those shakes and shingles, if they can go all the way down to the ground. dan

delegation at the bretton woods conference. mr.nstein, what did the delegates who assembled here hope to accomplish at bretton woods? we had two different objectives. one was to get monetary stability without the rigidity of the gold standard. the other was to prevent a recurrence of the disorders -- deflation and the depression -- that followed the first world war. we hoped we could get through a reconstruction period where europe would once again be a great producer. we hoped that we could establish a world trading system in which all could share in prosperity. and we wanted stability. schoumacher: to ensure stability, the bretton woods agreements outlined a new system of international cooperation. the linchpin of the system was the american dollar and its convertibility to gold. europe was either occupied or had been conquered, and every country in europe needed resources -- it needed to restock, it needed food. and of course, it had to be reconstructed. we were the only country that had the real resources to spare for that. and

so there is actually wood that supports some of the soil, that wood is roted out and the wall is rotated and it is cracked away from the return walls and that is the largest concern and that supports a bearing wall and so that the levels above that wall are supporting the floor framing one level up. and if that wall were to fail, you would have partial collapse of that zone of the building and so that is a significant concern of ours. and other deteriorated elements are crumbling concrete footings in areas of the building, and deteriorating framing includesing studs and bearing wall studs and joists in areas of the building and as ron mentioned we have the basement slab which is carved and crumbled and has sunk and we have the areas of crumbling brink and the wall at the lion street elevation. and we have joists resting on dirt. and so that there is not even a crawl space and all of those joists that are resting on the dirt are the lowest unit are deteriorated so there is a lot of heating and settlement of the floor system in the lowest unit. >> and we have the sagging bay window on the
