well, there's 3683 registered users of these here forums, if y'all were to send me ten bucks, we'd have more than enough starting collaterol to purchase said silo and get the bulk of the work done.

not only would this be an excellent GSP HQ but would serve as the perfect hideout in case of a zombie apocalypse.

Easy, we just need to get GSP converted into a religion so we can waive property taxes.

Hmm, well with enough people willing to uproot and move and live here a community of devout gamers and Music lovers, I would consider living out my life with my AO friends, Hell Yeah a full time party house, and entertainment center, enough space to do just about anything am sure I could at least come up with the earnest money, and I hear solar panels work well and always thought how neat a working windmill would be. A GSP amusement center I am up for that.

An online community for Silo people.
http://www.siloworld.com/

Including other bases for sale in the US, although it looks like all the others are only one missle silo's and thus cheaper.

But really, how can you live with only one Silo, I mean, you gotta have one for your missle, one for your Christmass Tree, and one for the giant water slide. I mean, there are neccesaties.

Oh, and speaking of Islands. Since were in the 21st century, we don't have to settle for existing natural islands, we could build our own.

I'll hold off until The Diamond Age comes true. Nanotech shake-and-bake instant fantasy islands ftw.

As long as I can paint the entire place with murals, I'm happy :)

I may require a slave army of trained ninja monkeys / artistic nanobot cloud swarms / killer badgers* / oiled young men** in skimpy loincloths / all of the above to help me, given the scale of the endeavour...

* Just because, okay?

** Or women. We are an equal opportunities "employer", after all...
