I think if the motion were right (regular, small, with lots of windows) it might work.Finnlaechhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15200208999855631154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083179650158393855.post-83270976282648618262008-06-26T15:07:00.000-04:002008-06-26T15:07:00.000-04:00this looks cool but...maybe starting a bit smaller to see if it works might be better. "small steps ellie, small staps" <BR/><BR/>Also, I think I'd get a bit nauseous. BUT I love the idea of using wind turbines between the floors that is so cool. I wonder if it'll hold together structurally.panglossiannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09119919230161122762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083179650158393855.post-45127877088752199632008-06-25T08:26:00.000-04:002008-06-25T08:26:00.000-04:00When I was in college and reading about this trend I decided that when I had more control over where I lived, I would move to politically diverse neighborhoods. Then a few months after I moved to said politically diverse neighborhood (Bellows Falls VT to be exact) my upstairs neighbor emptied his 9mm pistol in to my car, probably because of his dislike of my politics. So now I'm a bit more leery of diversity for its own sake. That being said I still believe that homogeneous neighborhoods are not good and there should be more dialog between people.Evanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18130667159646311802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083179650158393855.post-84441673837861753042008-06-24T11:16:00.000-04:002008-06-24T11:16:00.000-04:00This is a very interesting article. I was a bit surprised that the author didn't mention race and class, two big factors in choosing a home. I agree with his assessment that living in a politically homogeneous neighborhood does little create dialogue/broaden our minds. However, I would rather have been caught dead hanging out at CMC (the conservative college near Scripps) than at Pitzer (a Hampshire-esq college). I am guilty as charged of doing the exact same thing. If resources weren't a question do you think you could move to a neighborhood that was politically different?Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12920503383513359755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083179650158393855.post-78735312559031527702008-06-22T11:07:00.000-04:002008-06-22T11:07:00.000-04:00The Chevrolet Volt will end up collapsing the US power grid, which (except for a few nuclear plants) depends on OIL, Coal and Natural Gas to operate! <A HREF="http://dave-lucas.blogspot.com/2008/06/america-is-big-oils-slave.html" REL="nofollow">The latest chapter in GM's dark history?</A>Dave Lucashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18158899243777403663noreply@blogger.com
