True... and no one has occupied it yet, therefore no moral dilemmas!

I'm sure you're aware that I have plans for it. That's why I said New Antarctica.

It won't really be very productive until I get that big mirror in position over the South Pole.

Then watch the people flock in! Land of endless sunshine!

What a real estate boom. A whole continent!

"Not a rose. Roses are passe."

How about the lotus blossom?

That way, they could update the Royal Coach, too.

Bit of a shortage of hardwoods. I recommend diversifying into stone masonry.

But the palace will need creaky stairs and you can't get that from stone.

How else will the Royals hear the assassins creeping up on them without the creaky stair warning system?

Keep in mind that the replacement Royals will already have a palace or two available.

That's not the same thing as the coming building boom in Antarctica.

Of course, the first things to be built will be the launch facilities. We'll have a lot of ice to clear out before we can put up regular towns and cities.

To fund the project we will want to cut some of the older ice into cubes and sell it.

Glacier ice is a huge untapped market.

"Glacier ice is a huge untapped market."

That would be a good novelty market, but the primary market will be irrigation water for the deserts of the world.

With over five million square miles of desert waiting for our suborbital shipments of ice, which will fall as rain, in predictable amounts at specified times and locations, we could accommodate another doubling of the world's population.

That still leaves an overabundance of ice, because it will find its way to the oceans, and cause them to rise.

That is why our launch facility will be extended in capability to send shipments of ice into orbit, and on to Mars. We are going to transplant an ocean to Mars.

Then humanity will have another world, whose acreage will rival that of Earth. It will take time, but that is what the Future is for.


Mars with oceans ...

Who said I was seated on the toilet when it was running? Eh?

Well, OK then.

Is your fridge running?

I keep my fridge on a treadmill. That way it won't take off down the street...

I heard that the guy who invented the Post-it-note was trying to invent a super-glue.

So your fridge is running well?

Good to hear.

My washing machine broke down on Monday, and we had a new one delivered today.

The new one is running, but I have it chained to the wall.
