This is a good example to follow. But with global warming coming on, and with increases in average temperatures expected to be from 1 to 10 degrees F in the next 300 years, there might not be a USA by the year 2222. Ever think of that? Not a pretty picture, but worth thinking about. You might want to blog someday about "polar cities" or what a polar city might be like in the year 2424 or so, maybe 2525. You can see some images of a polar city here, although we don't have the funds of the UAE PR people to create a cool video. But do check the images out and blog about the idea, pro or con, someday. Before it is too late. Danny Bloom http://pcillu101.blogspot.com POLAR CITY　RESEARCH INSTITUTE Sure, America can build polar cities in such places as Florida, Texas, Arizona, California, yes.
