I've wondered if any Floridians have built their house on a big hydraulic lift? When hurricanes come, hit the switch....PSHHHHHHHHH...house drops down into the hidey hole! Heh! Nobody beat me to the patent office! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Yeah, that was me. I'm mean it wouldn't work up here, but in Key West, you don't have to go very far out before the shelf drops off to 2,000+ feet...

And if you pulled the silos out of a boomer, how many people could you bunk in there? A bunch, I bet. Now, if I could only get a few hundred million $ to get started! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
