I like lava lamps. I have one. However, having a fifty foot tall one in the middle of…well… anywhere, is just an eyesore as far as I am concerned. Fifteen years ago, I might have thought differently, but fifteen years ago, I was perpetually stoned.

I love lava lamps. Next time I visit my hometown in Oregon, I’ll have to swing by there. I wonder how much energy that consumes?

Well, a giant lava lamp prop and a real, heated & wax-filled lava lamp are 2 different things. I believe snopes has the skinny on why a gi-normous lava lamp could not be made to work like a small one does (physics and chemistry and other stuff they don’t teach in the USA anymore).

Having worked on the airbrushing of the original, I am totally psyched to think that it might be going up in Soap Lake. I would make a major road trip to see that!

Could you imagine the type of heat needed to generate the flow for the lava wax? Egads!

I think that’s great lava lamp kinda sets the tone and the ambiance of a place makes it look great relaxing and entertaining.

It’s a trap!
The moment they build that thing anyone who tries to leave their village will be chased back by a big lava bubble that comes out of the lamp.

heh heh, Technogirl. I am not a number! I am a free man!
I like the idea, even if the planning is taking a long time. I’d never heard of Soap Lake before, and now I want to take a daytrip there and see what’s up.

stoners across the world rejoice as tax dollars are what can only be called a total and flagrant misuse of funds

Well, I had no plans of going to Washington till now…booking my tickets now…yeah right, it may be neat but I don’t see how that will draw a lot of tourist.

I saw the picture without reading the post yet and I’m like “wow… worst Photoshop ever!!” LOL. This is a neat idea, but as others have said, it seems like a terrible waste of money.

Yes it would be nice 2 see something good happen 2 my home town but they’ve been talkin about this for years it probably will never happen!When it does I will visit Soap Lake again!
