Comments on Friday 5 November 2004:
Perhaps the funniest non-comedy site I've seen this year - New Utopia, a proposed constructed Libertarian paradise island. "New Utopia will be managed by a Board of Governors; managing what we believe to be the most perfect city/state ever conceived, blending the philosophies of both Ayn Rand and Robert Heinlein."

Ayn Rand and Robert Heinlein? How could anyone possibly resist? Especially with realistic philosophy like this: "The Principality of New Utopia will be constructed in such a way that each platform, which makes up a city block, is surrounded by water. This will make the policing of it a much easier task. Crime should be virtually non-existent." Yes, that's right folks, you'll be protected from crime by the magical powers of water. Perhaps Prince Lazarus Long has become confused between criminals and vampires as to which can't cross running water. Or maybe it's me who doesn't realise that criminals, in fact, can't cross brine. Who knows? Maybe L Ron Hubbard. [07:33]

Awww... Come on... All they have to do is eliminate aircraft, sea craft... long range missiles... It should be so easy... But still, think I'll move to the one being built off Dubai instead...

Looking at the website, it's obviously modelled on Venice (the one in Italy, not Florida's, Illinios', New York's or anyone else's knock-off), and as Sabinasta says:
"There is no crime in Venice, it's extremly safe city" (http://www.virtualtourist.com/vt/22643/8/?o=3&i=5).

How much more logic do you need?

i admire the noble concept but i think it MUST be submersible (v. important) in case there are six typhoons like there just were a couple months ago (if u recall, half of miami & jamaica & the west indies & cuba were wiped out a couple of months back)

Princess Maureen is not exactly confidence-inspiring.
