Some people didn't know foam glass insulation existed, and that's understandable, no probs with that.
However, why didn't anyone tell me Mr. Bogie man is this gentelman in the video, I would not have been so scared when a kid.
(ok, don't mind me, especially you Mr. Benjamin Bogie, I make silly jokes when I'm stressed out, wishing you all the good success) :)
