Buckyballs May Bounce All the Way to the Bank

I toured Buckminster Fuller's 'concept house' at the Henry Ford Museum in Detroit. The Dymaxion, Fuller's answer to affordable housing had a number of neat inovations to make the house energy efficient and practical...and after walking through it, it was a pretty comfortable place to live! - for a first house. His 'mass produced' housing idea amounted to only 3 prototypes and Dymaxion never quite became a 'household' name, but he had an ingenious idea to solve the housing problem post WWII.
