Even if you only have people of the same height in the household, how do you effectively wash your rear end and balls without a detachable shower head? You kind of have to immitate goatse.

Was Vivos Europa too grand? Try Vivos Indiana. Spot the problems. quote:Vivos Indiana is a one of the most fortified, nuclear hardened shelters within our network, located within a one-day drive from anywhere in the Midwest and the Eastern seaboard of America. Built during the Cold War to withstand a 20 megaton blast, within just a few miles, this impervious underground complex accommodates up to 80 people, for a minimum of one year of fully autonomous survival, without needing to return to the surface. I'm loving the kennels. If there's one thing a dog or cat wants it's to be cooped up in a tiny bunker for the rest of its life. Also, better hope you brought enough medication for the rest of your life. Edit: If I'm reading that plan right there are only two showers for 80 people.

It doesn't appear to be a Nike/Sprint missile base, or a titan base. Near as I can tell it appears to be an old AT&T telecom base, or a "Continuance of governance" base. They've done a much better job keeping this one secret, in that I've been looking for 10 whole minutes on google and haven't found it yet. I will though

Like the Lifehack thread's Enrique. Speaking of whom, I'm sure they could just have Enrique shut the vents to prevent Fire Tire smoke from flustering the broads and kiddies in their hidey hole. Thanks Enrique.

80 people and a grand total of 80 books. People from the outside aren't a threat to this complex, but the people inside it sure are. Think the Shining but 20 Jack Nicholsons.

Vivos, Indiana Found It It's an old AT&T Long-Lines bunker in Orleans, Indiana. It was sold in ~2006 off MissileBases.com: MissileBases.com in 2006 posted:Orleans, Indiana You can see there was an old long-line bunker in Orleans on the map at coldwarcomms Here. The Indiana Bunker is known to be ~10,000 sq feet in area. The Pulaski bunker is only 8200 sq feet, not big enough. You can see the wayback archive for the Orleans Site Here. The coordinates are given in the url to the image (that you can't load) called "Map of the area". The coords it gives are 38.674722, -86.354722 . Anyone want to take some photos?

You might notice on the ends of your arms some prehensile attachments, these can be used to introduce soap and water to out-of-the-way areas.

Or heavens forbid, a cat? Fixed showehead seems just cumbersome to me - the great thing about the whole concept of 'a bathtub' is being able to easily wash stuff in it with a detachable showerhead on a rubber hose and not getting yourself wet / spilling water everywhere.

Oh, I have a detachable showerhead and it is indubitably useful for things like that, but I don't detach it when I wash myself. Some bad architecture: I studied at the Judge Business School at Cambridge, which was located in the old Addenbrookes hospital. Lt looked kinda cool, but the use of internal space was really badly thought-out and inefficient. There is so much wasted space! You've got a walkway thingy running across the front of the building which serves no purpose, a huge atrium space, then the offices etc. The pictures revolves to show the whole space, much of it wasted. http://misc.jbs.cam.ac.uk/360tours/4th-floor-balcony/

The BBC put up an article today about postwar architecture: http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-34667034 As they point out most of the buildings in that list have been demolished or are about to be. The article includes old thread favourites like the Cumbernauld Town Centre and the Park Hill estate in Sheffield.

Why, exactly, does taking a loving shower in whatever manner raise such a strong reaction from goons? This is not the first or the fifth time this same subject has cropped up in some thread in recent memory. (it's a rhetorical question)
