Hi,
Any thoughts on future transport?
I see a future with encapsulated 'cells' flowing, that is, circulating
through 'subway' tubes much like blood cells flow thru the body. Each safe
& private, magnetically cushioned transport cell, conveying one-six
passengers, could be individually programmed to reach its destination via
the shortest/fastest route in a flexible network of tubes.
I've been wondering how to address areas of heavy flow - Will 'plasma' be
neccesary to keep cells upright or from crashing if the tube system is
widened to accomodate areas of heavy traffic? or, Will T-Cells move only in
single file?
Why am I wondering? - been reading about the super toxic 'aromatic octane
enhancers - gasoline additives that replaced lead... could these
neuro-toxic fumes be responsible for road rage? Do the oil companies have
thw world in an economic stranglehold?
Why is driving driving me mad? Or worse, idling at red lights.
