yeah that thing is crazy I saw it being talked about on some channel Discovery channel I think. The prices for those islands are huge..

LOL, a pityful island, ha, beginners stuff! We took half our country back from the ocean, swamps and lakes.
BTW Hong Kong build a similar airport island.

And a hundred million marine animals cried out and were suddenly silenced.
-
I heard the airport was sinking... not a good sign. saw it on discovery.

doesn't all land subside?

if you pick the one on the left your showing your age. ;D
-
Left.
But the right has more class.
-
Trick question.
The one on the left is Stingray.
-
Too pretty to be Stingray
-
Well, he's all made up there, so we don't laugh at him.
-
Looks like he's mooning us. I'd hate to see his face.

I'm actually farting in your general direction and waving my privates at your auntie.
Neither of those guys look like Slartibartfast to me. He'll always look like the guy that my imagination cooked up first time I read that book. The one on the left comes closer, he has to have a beard.

How can you forget about this project..

The land is sinking...
But the cool part is that the buildings are all supported by hydraulic columns that are constantly monitored and adjusted to keep the buildings level at all times. If one part of the island settled faster than another part then the building would just crack in half.
If it's on discovery again, watch it. It's incredible.

Maybe because the reference to the other project in first reply was brought funny and then one was enough.
