jbrenner assigns HOMEwork - Planning Atlantis
An assignment I give my students in almost every course I teach is what I call a questions and issues sheet. Students are asked to come up with a list of at least 25 questions and issues on a process design, product design, or failure analysis of my choosing. Students start by brainstorming either by themselves or in groups for 0.5 to 1 hour, and then categorize their questions and issues into the following categories: technical/engineering, economic, legal, regulatory, quality, environmental, safety, health, logistical, project management, and social impact. It is better for the questions and issues to be in the form of a question such that the question can be answered with a yes/no or a number. In that way, the exercise serves as a checklist to keep the project on track. Points are given for the number of questions, category coverage, identification of all of the key issues, depth of insight, creativity, and for thoroughness of the list. A critical issue not considered is often the project killer. Your assignment is to participate in this exercise for the development of a physical Atlantis.

When the first outbreaks of Mad Cow disease were reported, and I learned that they put ground cow bones into meal for feedstock, I immediately thought... "Kuru".

If you want a gulch in orbit, scale Vesta in from the asteroid belt, park it in a Lagrange orbit.
Also, Hugh Akston was Galt's mentor and professor, but it was a much younger Galt who invited Akston to the Gulch. ALL adults take the Oath. Remember the fish girl in AS? She just provided fish to the community and she wanted to be a writer. Dagny experienced her first feelings of jealousy in meeting her. It is said that Rand included the fish girl as a cameo for herself in the Gulch. Value for Value. ;)
If I have misread your intent, I apologize but something about your statement just doesn't come off right.
