Most local gyms have one hidden somewhere, but even if they don't, it's still not hard to find one.

LOL Actually, my family is not this bad (as far as I know, since I AM 2,000 miles away). Even my close relatives made fun of the people in Berkeley who were living in trees to prevent the trees from being cut down to make way for new construction. It wasn't as if the planners were intending to "clear cut" every tree in Berkeley. Berkeley, despite being urban, still has some lovely and large forested (and protected) areas. I think that's one reason I like Chicago. For a good part of the year, it's too cold and/or wet to even consider living in a tree. Edited April 25, 2010 by IgnatiusofLoyola

Laudate_Dominum Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Better yet, we should all move into tree spheres in order to minimize our ecological footprint. If Obama was a real liberal he'd outlaw cars and implement the tree sphere program along with tearing down our cities and planting trees.

These look VERY cool. Don't get me wrong. My fantasy would be to have a small house in a forested area where the trees were so thick you couldn't see (or, more importantly, hear) your neighbors. And, I'd love to live in a "tree house," as long as it had a roof and walls, and some basic amenities. But, camping out on a platform in a tree for months, with little shelter from the elements, doesn't appeal to me. Of course, the Berkeley "tree people" were on West Coast of California, where it normally doesn't rain from roughly April to October, and the weather (at least near the coast) is quite temperate. Or maybe what bothers me more is that the "tree people" were actively looking for attention and press. I'd want to live in a tree or in a thick forest for the privacy and the quiet, and all the animals living nearby. The last thing I'd want to do is draw attention to myself. That may be the only problem with the "sphere houses." They are TOO cool. People would always be driving or walking by, or trying to look inside. Edited April 25, 2010 by IgnatiusofLoyola
