Wow, that's almost creepy, Jim. Mary and I were just talking about how
great it would be if someone would build a gazillion of those stupid storage
units (basically glorified miniature garages) on Wittman Field.

Why build them?

There are companies that bring portable storage units to you, and then
store them away for you.

I see these things URL:http://www.pods.com/about/features.aspx all
over the local (NoCal) area. A two car garage isn't enough to hold
all the junk I guess. I'm sure there is something similar around
OSH. If not, you can always rent a shipping container.

It would have to be climate controlled. I don't know if the pods are stored
with heat and AC. Otherwise, tents and sleeping bags and stuff would all
stink.

I think there would be a problem with bringing pods on trucks down the
airplane parking rows at OSH. Problem? No problem, they wouldn't let them.

The PODS are stackable.
Multi-story "units" could be stacked at the end of the rows to form
"villages". Rental price increases with height above ground. Height is
limited by transition surface (7:1 slope from runway edge).
