i'm a little tortoise, short and stout

y'know, i've posted a number of entries pointing to some of the remarkable design ideas that come out of japan but i think we both know the japanese aren't the only ones with great ideas... check out this danish Snail Shell System



it's basically the ultimate in mobile homes (emphasis on 'ultimate' and 'mobile' for a reason you will understand when you check out the toilet system)... it can go anywhere on water or land, uses only environmentally friendly man(or woman)power to move (well, there's gravity too, i imagine this would be a blast on a hill), and it's apparently easily extensible...
