Apparently there are now problems with crumbling brick homes. The brick was imported from Mexico. See Mexican bricks blamed for crumbling homes | TOP STORIES | KHOU.com | News for Houston, Texas (http://www.khou.com/topstories/stories/khou090318_tnt_mexican-bricks.48e14fb7.html - broken link)

The same thing happened in the 60's with homes made of mexican brick that would deteriorate with rain. I believe they have to be sealed every few years ;I read.
