I had a dream the other night where I was on a flight from the US to Europe. We must have taken off from Atlanta or Charlotte (so I guess I was flying Delta or USAir, but that's daytime Brad's post dream analysis) because we flew over the Carolina coast at fairly low (2,000 ft.) altitude. It was just past dusk and as I looked out of the left window in the area I understood to be Charleston I could see the lights of the city, but extending out into the ocean were new buildings. They were laid out on something like a grid system, made of glass and steel, constructed in twenty to thirty feet of water. Most of the buildings (maybe forty of them total) were well lit, causing the water around them to glow, and even illuminating the smooth sand ocean bottom. There was even an old stone building that by contrast looked unoccupied, kind of an Atlantis-the-drowned-city exception.
OK, so that's all pretty impractical given that for the most part buildings and oceans don't mix very well. Or maybe that's how it will all be a hundred years from now when all that snow melts.
