Underground homes promise big savings and comfort

A Las Vegas man, G B Henderson, lives in a largely underground house that costs about a third to heat and cool compared with topside homes and carries only one eighth of standard insurance. The home features a mural view from west and New York skyline from east, a swimming pool, patio, and plant-friendly GE lighting. Henderson and family also built underground homes in Las Vegas and at the New York World's Fair, with easy outside maintenance, no mowing, and safe cookouts. He advises building a larger hole, as the cost scales with size, and foresees a bright future for desert and crowded areas.
