>There was a Free University City. There were at least four, maybe more, set up between Moore and the street. They were also across the street. It was partially a reaction to the guilt inherent in being one of the chosen few to receive higher education. Many professors held free seminars.

I lived in the basement of Moore and allowed my phone to be used to contact people working at the site. As a newly arrived freshman I was heady with the sense of power of determined people... or was it the smoke.

I may be repeating an Urban Legend here but I think some counter-counter culture types destroyed most of the domes.

The Yurt came later after Moore and Pierpont combined into one Project 10.
