Loved to read your blog. I would like to suggest you that traffic show most people read blogs on Mondays. So it should encourage bloggers to write new write ups over the weekend primarily.

i've been fallowing your island for many years now , i beleave i have fixed most of the things people say are wronge with your design, to include wave reduction system , greator storm sirvieability and the ability to grow the island into a multi family island of much greater size and mass , as well as the ability to be opperated out on open ocean, this island will use much of the same idea's you came up with , but will be much stronger and more flexable in regaurds to wave and storm , it can withstand hurican winds and not breakup, the wave reduction technology will keep 90% of waves from striking main island body, also island will be mobile having 4 motor housins built into island so it can avoid large storms altogether if needs be --think of a tugboat pulling large lines of barges on missippi river 6 wide and a 12 long this is done on a daily basis each one much larger the your first 2 islands now think of an island with those dimencions or more, oh yes all the items used in this island go into land fills everyday as i said this is your design and idea , just beefed up and reconfigured to be stronger and more boyent ,i have been working on these ideas for 10 to 12 years ever sence i first saw your island and read others comments on it's problems, also i found in my research a clean and pure water generator that will generate clean drinking water , and cool air in a worm or hot climet , again not my idea just a good one i came across , like your island idea , i have put together alot of other peoples ideas to make your island design better , i'm a big fan of you and your island , and plan to retire early and build this new island in the next 2 to 3 years-- oh anybody interrested in living on one of these islands i'll be looking for help in the building of it i'm more ambuishes i want a large island the more people helping the bigger it will be. contact me at dbakh@netzero.com if you have any questions

Does anybody know if this kind of project could be used as a solution to population density by reprocessing the MASSIVE SEA OF PLASTIC GARBAGE TWICE THE SIZE OF BRITAIN (between the Equator and 50 degrees north latitude about halfway between California and Hawaii)?? Lots of work but lots of refugees and greenies out they desperate for this kind of opportunity...?

Why not build your own little piece of paradise? I love it when people dream big and make it happen. How cool.

Well I am not sure if I would want to live their but he seems happy. What can I say I like my A/C and for me it's just way too hot to be without it down there.

Hi,

Another green transportation innovation is the elliptigo, which enables a more ergonomic means for urban human powered transportation. Check out the video and blog at www.elliptigo.com.
