<< The 500 engineers and many workers who will build the ship are scheduled to begin construction later this year and should complete the ship by 2005. >>

I think I saw a popular mechanics article about this 4 or 5 years ago. It was supposed to have been built by now.

Kevin Costner, heh?

Well, not to offend anyone, but the floating city idea sounds pretty dumb to me. Why would you want to live like that? You're at risk (uh, what if a really big wave takes you under? :p mutant-sharks anybody?), anything can happen... Think of all the gas it'll guzzle propelling that monster boat? It's not more advanced or "evolved" or anything, so what's the point in doing that? It's just a money-scourging waste.
