bricks and brome
the professional, personal, and family life of Jim Posey
Jim is a semi-retired construction specification writer based near Calgary, Alberta. Hence Bricks. He is an amateur botanist devoted to the native flora of Alberta, and to limiting modifications of native ecosystems by invasive alien species. Hence Brome.
Ongoing professional activities include specifications for particularly interesting projects; 2-D, 3-D, and 4-D modeling (using a general purpose PDE solver in preference to dedicated software); simple experiments to illuminate neglected aspects of building science; and technical writing relating to building enclosures.
Botanical interests focus on the flora of Alberta, and invasive plant species in the region.

brome
Brome will get you links to information about native and invasive exotic plants in Alberta; not just an infestation of invasive alien grass.
