Cool indeed, but think about living there on a daily basis. I'm in no
way putting down the guy's ingenuity and engineering ability, but we
would certainly need to adapt our habits to live there.

When I boil pasta, I don't hang around the kitchen waiting for the
water to boil or the pasta to cook. I do however check it on a regular
basis. Going in and out of a room that sometimes exists, sometimes
doesn't could get pretty inconvenient.

Trying to watch a football game while cooking would be next to
impossible since you lose the TV (heck, you lose the TV *room*) when
you use the kitchen counter.

You'd better make your popcorn *before* you start the movie. ;-)

I'm sure that there are many other ways that we multi-task in our
stationary homes and apartments that couldn't be done in that place.

I wonder where he kept all his stuff while he was building the
systems. Even more curious - think about trying to actually *install*
the system in such a tight space. That must have been an engineering
feat unto itself.

I remember that they did these experiments on mice or guinea pigs –I
don’t remember which- in the 1970’s where they were forced to breed in
close quarters and after a while they started to attack and kill each
other. No wonder every once in a while they go crazy and kill
kindergarten children.

Anybody that started out with two mice, or rabbits, figured that out
within a few generations.
Self-limiting populations are the norm. It's stupid to think that
humans are exempt.

Molloy is referring to the spate of Chinese student killings in the
news. Copycat killings.

The question was actually in reference to the sentence structure that
Molly used.

Her paragraph discusses mice and guinea pigs and how *they* (the mice
and guinea pigs) "started to attack and kill each other."

She then immediately followed that (in the same paragraph) with "No
wonder every once in a while *they* go crazy and kill kindergarten
children."

From a strictly English language perspective, that means that the mice
and guinea pigs were killing the children.

P.S. Yes, I read the news often.

Common sense anyone? We aren’t discussing mice or guinea pigs or even
the Chinese on an alt.home.repair forum. We must most likely be
discussing living space? What do you think?

Even an alligator will eat it's young.

Painting jail holding cells red / pink will cause the tenant too
become more prone to violence.

No NOT correct. The rodents did NOT start attacking their own UNTIL
the population went over a threshold. If you want I can look up the
article for you.

We aren't?

You brought up all three! (even if you did do it in an grammatically
incorrect manner)

If fact, you continued to discuss the mice or guinea pigs when you
responded with "The rodents did NOT start attacking their own UNTIL
the population went over a threshold."

If that's not a discussion, what is?

I remember reading about that, in my psych text books. Over crowding
leads to agression -- like the gangs on the streets of Bronx. And like
lab rats who go on the rampage and kill kindergarden children.
