Bed Formatting

Sorry for the bad formatting. It did not show on the preview, and I can not edit after submission, apparently. Blame MS Word. -Jason

Not sure if the credit guidance is truly creating an "incentive" for the wrong decision - it's often possible to imagine a specific scenario where a project could earn a higher rating by doing something that would be more costly, more complex, have greater embodied energy, higher life cycle impact, etc, that's clearly not the best solution or in the interest of the client. Just say no! It may not be possible for a rating system, standard, or code to anticipate all possible permutations, and it doesn't sound like there's anything "compelling" this project to earn more points.
