  1. Would that the future is Dayton, or even late-1950’s London. A reminder for those not old enough to remember, that a London Trolleybus had a noticeably larger capacity than a Routemaster” & of course, emitted no fumes.

    Hyperloop – Not just a denial of physics but also a denial of social realities. IIRC ( subject to correction ) Musk hates actual “public” transport – rugged USA individuals sit in their private pods.. Oh dear, never mind.
