"How are we going to push this nail into this board?"

"We can use a hammer."

The question is "How can we build a house on a solid foundation that helps us live free, happy, healthy lives."

Hammers may be a part of the toolset, but they won't solve issues like siting it on the edge of a sand dune, or that the septic tank is currently in the master bedroom.

The foundations of our building are crumbling, causing all the wood beams to fall out of place.

Do you use a hammer to right them all?

It'd be great if it were that simple, but it isn't.
