- Did you do the blown cellulose yourself? How did it go? I am thinking of insulating my garage attic space with that stuff, using the blower that Lowe's or HD will lend you if you buy the insulation f

- Is there any good reason to believe it's better than what they had 40 years ago ? My attic has some 40 year old cellulose, and it's pretty nasty. Doubt it's doing anything for insulation either, sin
