(urth) Dome, Dome on the Range

[Jeff Wilson]

It occured to me at lunch today that a problem with the open air 
atmosphere schemes, even ones that last thousands of years between 
refills, is that they take half to 3/4 the mass of earth's atmosphere to 
work. When this does escape from the moon, only small amount of that 
will also escape from the earth, and  the reset will eventually come to 
fall on the earth, raising its surface air pressure accordingly; this is 
a serious problem
