[Strawbale] 5 perms / no ventilation; and top-of-wall

[Rene Dalmeijer]

Jon,

I concur with you since I first used EPDM for a green roof I will never 
use torch down roofing again. It is easier to apply and also allows me 
to eliminate aluminum roofing trims. I set your mind to rest EPDM is 
one of the most eco friendly roofing materials you can use.
