wheeee

personal rapid transit -- that sounds like a great concept! and, in fact, it's an actuality in morgantown west virginia! and, in fact, it was put together in the 70's! that is so cool!

doesn't disneyland have this kind of thing, too? but not too many other places in the u.s. have put something like this together.

i wonder if seattle looked into it at any point along the way of spending millions of dollars on their transit woes.

indianapolis has an overhead rail system which goes from the medical center downtown at Purdue and connects to a hospital a mile or so away. i wanted to check it out when i was there last year, but i was sick the whole time. (!) if you look on google maps you can see there are a huge bunch of hospitals, cancer facilities, and medical centers within an eight square block area of the university. gees, if i get really sick, take me there!

but back to transit, this is the concept i really like -- small and personal. let's do it!!
