Guest guest Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 First thing I thought of was colleges and how many kids could get into the old phone booths <g> Lynda - Jonnie Hellens Tuesday, November 01, 2005 11:42 AM Re: Germany tests 9ft 'micro-house' I would hope that people would knock before entering.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 I know that it is this inventor is well meaning, and I supposed that little boxes are better than big boxes. but I believe that this is highly uncivilized. feels dehumanized. How horrible must it be to be that enclosed? it would be claustophobic... Has our society come to this? Ideally we should live on the earth in open fields.. a little house with lots of space.. woods behind it, mountains, streams.. to be one with earth. we can create heaven here. the problem is that we are not in cooperation with this idea. the sprwal, the population getting higher, and all of the space is misused. i needn't go on. , " Lynda " <lurine@s...> wrote: > > First thing I thought of was colleges and how many kids could get into the old phone booths <g> > > Lynda > - > Jonnie Hellens > > Tuesday, November 01, 2005 11:42 AM > Re: Germany tests 9ft 'micro-house' > > > I would hope that people would knock before entering.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 we'd need to get rid of a few billion ppl that way then tho.... not enough space for everyone to live like that many places in the world are horribly overcrowded..and may places have a huge population of underprivalaged and homeless... ever see those cubical hotels in japan....

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 This would be nice, but it often isn't feasible. I think these 'boxes' would be great for college. How much time do they spend in their room anyways? They need housing that is extremely reasonably priced. It's so hard working your way thru college anyway.Anouk Sickler <zurumato wrote: I know that it is this inventor is well meaning, and I supposed that little boxes are better than big boxes.but I believethat this is highly uncivilized. feels dehumanized.How horrible must it be to be that enclosed?it would be claustophobic...Has our society come to this?
