This is true. These plans exists. But it will not be built to protect Houstonians from natural disasters, rather, it will be built to enslave us all.

Stephen King wrote a book about this. It didn't have a good ending.

Central AC related companies are always ready to give the demo related to the usage of AC. Try to pick the write one for your suggestions.

I watched the Discovery Channel video about the Dome. Sounds ludicrous. Funny to hear the commentator list humidity as one of Houston's biggest problems. I mean I've always felt it is incredibly muggy here, but the natives seem to think that the transplants are crazy for thinking so.

I think a lot of things will happen 100 years from now that people today think are impossible. How would people have reacted, 100 years ago, if you'd predicted cable TV, the internet and skype?

When you come into one of these Discovery Channel "what if documentaries" after missing like the first 15 minutes.. you can think that these things like a dome is being built around downtown Houston RIGHT NOW... Discovery makes it all so realistic... they create these "facts" and get actors to play convincing Scientists... and then you believe for an hour or a day that , Oh My God, there are Mermaids out there too!!!
