The Cradle of the Confederacy offers a variety hot spots where they can study the wide array of the many locals. <br /><br />Some people choose to see the Alabama Shakespeare Theater, the Capri Theater, the Museum of Fine Arts, the Montgomery Country Club, the Montgomery Performing Arts Center, the Downtown Alleyway, and restaurants that charge you $50 for one meal. The people in these places are prime candidates for study because of the superfluous amounts of money they spend on a regular basis...even in a time of economic downturn.<br /><br />On the other end of the spectrum, there are all the other places that the ultra rich choose to not go.These people make their way into the movie theaters, malls, bowling alleys, and the most popular choice, parking lots. These places often become heavily infested with teenagers. <br /><br />This large variety of people and social settings will surely make an interesting study for the Dharma Initiative.Christy Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04607751406465821337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981436.post-57636400157975079502009-12-06T20:44:05.109-06:002009-12-06T20:44:05.109-06:00DHARMA would love Albuquerque because we were the ...DHARMA would love Albuquerque because we were the headquarters of microsoft in the 1970s; presuming they set up shop circa '77, they could all their hatch computers, with the latest software, direct from the source.

The land is completely flat (geologically unique). The weather changes twice a year, from winter to summer and from summer to winter (weather experimentation). The people are entranced each fall with the local college football team, unable to discuss anything else (mind control/parapsychology). And finally, animal expert Jack Hanna is from Columbus (zoology). I'm certain there's a DHARMA station here. I just have to find it.King Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08176586256254584742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981436.post-10890568195220660452009-12-06T19:17:12.817-06:002009-12-06T19:17:12.817-06:00The DHARMA initiative would love to put up shop in...The DHARMA initiative would love to put up shop in Richmond, VA because of it's proximity to the ocean, the mountains.

Buena Vista Home Entertainment was awesome enough to offer up this set for my readers, and since they're based in Canada, the DVDs are in Region 1 format. There's nothing I can do about that, sorry! All of my other contests are open to anyone, as you should have noticed in the past. (And if you weren't aware that DVDs and DVD players have different specifications based on what country you're in and you are outside the US, chances are high you don't have a Region 1 player -- you would've had to have sought one out specifically.)<br /><br />Lani - <br /><br />Yes, since you have a Region 1 player you are entered!<br /><br />- eErika (aka "e")https://www.blogger.com/profile/17051946388926947935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981436.post-90277616002477396242009-12-06T05:13:51.885-06:002009-12-06T05:13:51.885-06:00WHY?

They could maintain secrecy under the cover of burkas (black ninja outfits that the women here wear). There are all kinds of fossils, such as shark teeth, that we've found in the middle of the deserts here-- could make for an interesting logo and even more interesting digging. They can air drop the Dharma beer in (and hopefully hit my house - we can't buy alcohol here) The segregation of the sexes would make for very interesting social experiments and studies.
