#14 Sorry to rain on the parade, but nix the Hypersonic Zeppelins. Leading Russian Hypersonic scientists got arrested for selling secrets to China. Maybe hypersonic Zeppelins over Taiwan in a few years. |

#11 I've seen and thought about the de-miled silo deal. My question: What if somebody out there hasn't updated their target list, and your location is still on it? |

#10 We have have niche construction market for just such shelters, for private citizens. Even specialists in turning old silos into living quarters. Even a TV show about it. |

#8 If I was gonna build a hideout bunker, I wouldn't put it within easy fire range of an open coastline. Just sayin'. |

#7 The implication is that Putin is some kind of crazed, James Bond type of villain because he built a bomb shelter. OK. We get it. Putin is a villain. But our own government has bomb shelters too. Maybe our government is better at keeping secret just how lavish and extensive their shelters are. Raven Rock is fully operational, and should the United States break out into nuclear war, it's where defense operations would likely be centered. It's a good bet Raven Rock is not the only hidey-hole that our government maintains. |
