I've heard about this. Sounds awesome. Hopefully we'll see something like it in our lifetimes. ;)

WOW! 5,000 mph in a vaccum tube, swaying as it's anchored to the bottom of an earthquake prone section of the ocean!?!? :shock:

Pardon the pun, but I'm not holding my breath. :D

Yeah, if this is what the future holds for transportation, I can't wait to see what it holds for thrill rides at amusement parks! :shock:

I think this would be really intresting. I dunno if I would want to be one of the first people to try it out, but after a couple years I probably would!

haha and probably a cavity check... That looks really neat, but i doubt it'd happen in our lifetime. They said it'd take decades to build :(
