Mincus, I didn't notice you were in town! We will have to get together to scheme up some eco stuff or compare ideas. I won't make you suffer in my attic though! I live in South City, at Gravois, between where Kingshighway and Loughborough intersect it.

Ben, no leaks (YET!!) I will be hopefully just repairing the damaged sections once I correct the source of the problem.

I had an epiphany this morning; might not have to tear out the drywall. If I make some long sheets of coroplast and shove them in from the attic on the sides (I have about 2m on either side of the room that's open attic) I might be able to push them up between the insulation and roof, all the way to the top.
Oh man, just realized that won't work. Roofing nails penetrate as much as 3cm past the roof. Those will have to be exposed and cut off prior to this project.
Darn.
