Title: I MUST go to Soap Lake
Post by: videoholic on January 17, 2003, 09:42:14 AM: This is funny. These people are actually wanting to build a giant lava lamp to get tourists to come to their town..

"The Lava Lamp is proposed to be 60+ feet high with a diameter of 18+ feet.

It is constructed of cast 4-6 inch thick reinforced glass with a structural metal base and top cap. The contents of the lamp will be similar to conventional lava lamps, which contain a combination of liquids and colored treated water."

They even have their own website already...

Um, you do realize that when communities make proposals to build things they do artist renderings of the object so people can vote on it.

I can only assume that you realize this and were just attempting to make a funny.

Good, I feel better now. Spencer is smart. Spencer is smart.

Actually I shouldn\'t say that because I don\'t know how old you are.

Now you know...
