[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4523167, member: 18222"] I don't know where you are from but when I was growing up in the Deep South, I would hear houses referred to as 'Shotgun Houses' and I did not understand why and then I got someone to explain the term to me. He explained that a bullet fired through the front door would go right out the backdoor without hitting a wall. They were actually built like this to take advantage of crosswinds that kept the house cooler with breezes. Anyway, that's what I always believed. [/QUOTE]
