onVia Warren Ellis: The Quantum Sleeper, The world’s first terrorist-proof bed! It’s bulletproof, comes with a rebreather and toilet system, and is perfect for sleeping off biological warfare. It’s apparently not available yet, but they estimate that it’ll cost about $135,000. Says the website:
It can also be fitted to provide protection from destructive forces of nature such as tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes and floods.The Quantum Sleeper is the ultimate in protection, entertainment and communications, “ ALL ROLLED UP IN ONE”.
With this unit you don’t have to run to a “Safe Room”, you’re already in it.
I was thinking that this might be a hoax, and I guess it might still be, but here’s the Google Patent Page.

God, you Americans are so gullible.
What if the terrorists cut off the power? How would the night light work?!
Wow... a double wide coffin. (I knew this day would come.)
I know, let's buy one for Fnarf, since he's so worried about terrorists attacking anything taller than 6 stories ...
No. 3 got to it before me.
Just nail the thing shut, toss some dirt over it, and you've got a bomb shelter, too.
I'd pay for the thing jsut for a toilet in the bed. Thats pretty fucking awesome for early morning urination.
I want to make sweet, sweet love in that thing.
what the fuck? Did the person who wrote this patent repeatedly watch the episodes of South Park where the terrorists take over Imagination Land until he/she became obsessed with the idea to come up with this???
Weren't these already installed in Pioneer Square?
@6:
Back in the day, our grandparents (well, those that lived in rural areas anyway) used to call it "a chamber pot".
Or you can just use the "trucker's friend".
@10 - used to? in some places they still exist.
