   In late March (1992) Ray Collins received a phone call from John McWorter about an hour before Ray was to leave to drive to Anchorage.
   ...
   John was interested in doing a report for APRN on ISECCo and our biosphere project, and wanted to interview Ray.
   ...
   Ray postponed his departure for a couple of hours, and was very glad to have invested the time for John did an excellent job with the interview.
   ...
   John McWorter: Although his dream is much older, ISECCo President Ray Collins has been working on his biosphere for the last four years.
   ...
   Ray Collins: Well we have an 11 meter diameter which is about 36 foot dome that is going to be buried completely underground.At its simplest it can be seen as a garden inside a house.
   ...
   Ray Collins: We anticipate a lot of power.
   ...
   Ray Collins: We don't have a very firm timeline except that our lease on the land will expire in the year 2010.
   ...
   But while the structure is still waiting Collins has done a lot of work thinking about what will go into the gardens.This winter he has been experimenting with peanuts and other plants to see which ones yield the most calories per square foot of space.Summer squash, he says, works well as does rice.
   ...
   John McWorter: Helms offered to consult with Collins on his project.
   ...
   Collins says he has already talked with the architect of Biosphere II and has gotten some ideas.Now he says, all they need is money.
