As you might recall, the Homebuilder's show in Las Vegas this year fea­tured a smaller house. I can't recall the square footage, but it was smaller than the aver­age square foot home being built today, but big­ger than our Little House <g>.

Here's a story of a Las Vegas builder sell­ing homes with an aver­age of 6,500 square feet.  He has also built a 9,000 square foot home in Nevada that has a Net Zero car­bon imprint and also returns energy through solar pan­els to Nevada's energy grid.

What say you, read­ers? Can big homes really be green?
