   Mr Fergerson - interesting story, I honestly didn't know anything about this   
   coronium thing.   
   On muonium, my bad, I thought it's electrons that get replaced by muons here,   
   not protons... So what would be density of muonium? Has anyone calculated   
   that?    
   Let's say Yayland Weylani Company develeped Polarized Magneto-Electric   
   Stabilizers (tm) and stabilization problem is already solved ;)   
   On materials used - I think it's possible to build something that big with   
   todays materials, Akron and Hindenburg were both around 240 meters long and   
   were built with metals known in 1930s, on first World War there were some made   
   with wood, they were    
   more than 100m in lenght IIRC, so I think it's entirely possible to build such   
   beast with todays materials.   
   The foam idea is kinda fine, but it's very possible that mass of the paint and   
   foam by itself will be to big to be effective, add something to connect all   
   "bricks"... It may be problematic. Also, diferrent shapes make need for big   
   structural strenght, I    
   am not sure how would it work out.   
   Eripe - that's what I thought about steam, it just sound to good to just put   
   hot steam in here :v   
   Thanks for the link, seems that foam can be much closer than my novel airship   
   gas... Damn, I really prefer flying sausages and cigars :v   
   Today I am gonna check orientational specifications of my airship if it was   
   filled with vacuum (sounds strange) in this foam.
