RE: (ATMoB:Discuss) Online plans for a bat house?
Bruce,
Go to the enclosed link. They have info about bat houses, a link to a book
and a video and even will sell you a pre-built bat house that will hold 200
of the critters. Check it out.

Can someone point me to some bat house plans on the web. It could take 2
years for us to make up our minds on this anyways, and I've got some free
time since being laid off a few weeks ago.
Oh, and if anyone out there knows of a company looking for a senior-level
Software QA guy, please let me know privately. (Sorry for the off-topic
post, Brewster and Lew).
