Here's an idea I've been thinking about since Hugo seems to be destined to
smash into the east coast..

If a shuttle has been rolled out, why can't they roll it out onto a platform
that goes down into the earrth to protect it? (kinda like a big elevator), and
then people on the surface could put tarps, ect. over the hole, and wait for
the storm to pass??

frieds, and feel extremely silly.  You may flame me as hard as you wish.
even in public.)
