Title: Seasteading
Post by: Steff on June 24, 2008, 07:36:02 pm
Hi folks: I'm writing a freelance article on seasteading for an upcoming website titled, "Liberty Wire."
If you aren't familiar with seasteading, Google Peter Thiel and seasteading and you can get the gist of the whole scenario.
Please write me if you think you would be a candidate for seasteading or pass along this email to someone who might be. I am interested in some quotes on those who might find the idea appealing.
I would be willing to show you my article, thus far, which encapsulates the concept, to give you some idea of what the lifestyle entails.
Write me at steflink01@yahoo.com if you are willing to be identfied with a quote as to why this would be a lifestyle for you.
I have a deadline of July 8, so I need to keep moving on this.
Thanks.
Stephanie Kalina-Metzger

Thanks Barry: Give me a call or drop me a line.
I'm going to try to track down some others through their website.
The drawback (and to me it is a big one) is the 300-ft per person living area.
Now maybe when I'm nursing-home bound, that wouldn't be a big deal, but for now, that wouldn't work for me.

Well the biggest draw back to me is that you can't just go to the store when you want something. Hydro ponics might work well for a Vegan, but I'm a meat eater. getting a repairman, or proper medical help.

Also I like the mountains and the change of color in the fall here in Pennsylvania.

Peace and Love,
Samantha

Well, they do serve meat on cruise ships, so I don't think that would be too much of a problem.

Daily cost of living on a cruise ship is a bit high.

If you like Tilapia, they are VERY cheap and easy to raise, and it could easily be done on a ship.

Daily living on a cruise ship--if you remove all taxes--I'd venture to wage that it's quite economical.
