Indoor Tropical Island

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the blissful-land dept.

fons writes "The huge construction dome of the now bankrupt zeppelin maker CargoLifter, has been turned into an indoor tropical island. For about 20euro a day you can swim in the sea, take a walk in the rainforest or go to a beachparty. While it is snowing outside, it's a always a pleasant 25C on the island. And there are no tsunami's. It's bigger than Biosphere2 (it fits the Eiffeltower) but there's less sunlight. Would you spend your vacation in there? The Germans don't seem to be very eager."

    I'm guessing the the plural form is Tsunamis.

    But I guses you could make the argument that since octopus become octopi and radius becomes radii, Tsunami becomes tsunamus(the plural form)

    I kid, I kid!!

    Could be actually be possible that after two generations of anti-Nazism and true democratic institutional framework that the Germans have actually changed?

    No.

    I know it probably wasn't intended to be tasteless, but wasn't that comment in the submission kind of inappropriate and tacky? There are reports of up to 145,000 dead from that disaster.

    Just sayin'; maybe you (the random reader of this post) disagree.
