Well, so many things at once ... Let me share some tots.

1) Map simulator ~~ yeah ... but you can find many videos online but not the real simulator .. unless u contact personally to some research center. here is a link you might wanna cheek out . http://www.gearthblog.com/blog/archives/20...er_effects.html

2)underground Living !! Big Yesss .. there are pros and cons of living underground (depends on the ground / soil conditions and stats). well, Chicago is already building a city underground. you may watch the video on Discovery Channel, Mega Engineering.

Infact there are companies which are building small floating homes / towns on water surface. watch on discovery as well

but i guess why people are so reluctant to stay elsewhere because we are so much used to with the lifestyle such as ( nice roads, cafes, cars, making money, outfits, etc..). its just that we had made all these as our necessity. just an example.. ask your grandfather or father to use a PDA or a smart phone or things which they never had in past ... u will see how reluctant they are.
i remember how difficult was it for my father to change to Auto car from a Manual Car. and now he dose not like to change H/P and buy the same model and same brand once the h/p gets old or spoiled.
its just human nature.. not everyone is flexible and think out-of-box.
just my 50 cents.
