I got my information from Dyffed Neal Dyar's web page. I asked him
where he got his information and this is what he sent me back.

Thanks. Now I know I didn't just miss it somehow.

But I for one have found the idea of storing water over the windows
would serve as a radiation modifier, and would probably produce
more "natural" weather patterns inside the colony.

Perhaps, but if at a high-orbital construction site, between 1 million tons
of water, and one million tons of slag, I know which is going to cost more.

Mike Combs
