The Timeship, which could more accurately bear the name of the Saulsoleum, shows signs of a project in trouble. The county assessor reportedly revoked the Stasis Foundation’s tax exempt status and handed it a bill for nearly $100,000 in back taxes because of the lack of construction on the property (the Timeship looks like a way to shelter wealth from taxation); and the plantation-style building already on it suffered from expensive water damage when a pipe froze a couple winters back. Apparently the owners didn’t bother to have a caretaker live there and keep the building heated during cold weather. That and the avoidable tax problem suggest a lack of diligence.
I listened online to most of the Timeship architect Steve Valentine’s presentation about the project at the Suspended Animation conference back in May, and it did not impress me. Valentine made it sound more like the temple of a cult than a scientific-medical facility..
