Condo developer Larry Hall is already one-
quarter sold out of the upscale doomsday
units he is building in an abandoned
underground Cold War-era Atlas-F missile
silo near Salina, Kan. He told an Agence
France-Presse reporter in April that his 14-
story structure would house seven floors of
apartments ($1 million to $2 million each,
cash up front), with the rest devoted to dry
food storage, filtered-water tanks and an
indoor farm, which would raise fish and
vegetables to sustain residents for five
years. The 9-foot-thick concrete walls (built
to protect rockets from a Soviet nuclear
attack) would be buttressed by entrance
security to ward off the savages who were
not wise enough to prepare against famine,
meteors, nuclear war and the like. Hall said
he expects to be sold out this year and
begin work on another of the three silos he
has options to buy. [Agence France-Presse
