If you're planning to build a home in Germany, take a tip from one of the exhibits at the recent fair held in Leipzig and install a gax- raid chamber in your cellar. This one is made of reinforced con- erote, ready to be buried. The idea is that while your nice new home may be wrecked by air bombs, you'll be safe and cozy here.
