The URL for the baseline seastead position paper is http://seasteading.org/engineering/base_seastead . Please ask questions, point out errors, etc. on this thread. Also, be gentle -- I am actually a computer programmer by training, not a marine engineer.

Some errors in the formula,

Some errors in the formula, for example "the over volume Vo is Vo = πDH... " πH(D/2)^2 is more like it

Circle area fixed

I have edited the document to replace all circle circumference equation fragments with circle area equation fragments. Thanks for pointing out the error.

Democrats and Liberals (Discussion)

Hello there, what about life which is cover our lifes exactly now!!

Liberals aren’t just for blacks or women, they are supposed to be for
human rights. Liberals are supposed to be for life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness for all people, not just blacks and women! Where
is the white man in their scheme of the future world? Where is liberty
for choice? Simply where is liberty?

Liberals and democrats should stand for human rights for all. The democratic
party seems to miss the barn if they do not stand for the rights of
all. It is not a trade. Democrats seem to be trading the rights of the
adult male for women, children and minorities. What is this simplistic
marketing venue? Who made all this?

Get a life Democrats, you should make the point that you are for human
rights or not? You know, life liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
That type of stuff. You fail if you take sides. You cannot be for human
rights and for only one sex, race, or income level. And if you think
that it is all enough it is mistake it is just start point.

Do Democrats understand the human race? Make they thru American dream?
What really American needs?

What do you think about? Post here your reaction!

I think it is all about our real life now and what is good you or me
not exist we all together make decision who will be next...

Clever spam... is this a sign of the coming technological singularity that will make mankind obsolete? Should I be afraid of my computer? My cell phone? My toaster?
