| Mike is right-- the only way with 15 seconds warning to be safe is to live in the shelter all the time-- to have every home a shelter and a custom of letting anyone inside the second the alarm sounds. But a geodesic dome isn`t strong or cheap enough. See http://www.monolithic.com/disaster_resistance/index.html for strength and for cheapness see http://www.monolithic.com/pdfs/ecoshell.pdf For the cost of the (imperfect missile defense system) the State could have these ecoshells mass produced (under $10000 each-- see the PDF) and emplaced as new and better homes for the people of Sederot. (3 would be needed for a typical family--still cheaper than 1 conventional home.) |
