Thats friggin sweet!~

that'll never work... reminds me of that show about the woman president.




;)

heh...wouldnt be cool if it did.

Tha'ts just silly

figures rolleyes:

thats what i think. who is going to want a 8 day trip to the station if its like an elevator? kind of cramped imo. also, what if the station has some kind of failure, like all projects do. it could crash into the earth along with the cable, or if it just sits still, the rotating earth would break the cable. not very practical, but its cool to see people coming up with ideas.

tiight shit if it works

probably. but it would be shut down after one person died anyway even if it was totally unrelated. either way it wouldn't last long.

Multiply that by 3600x24x8......
