The only fiction here is the idea that they can come up with the money
to build it, allay health concerns and get all of the environmental
permits.
This is California where there are plenty of people who think power
lines will kill them. This magnetic drive will send them over the
edge.

Elon Musk has a proven track record of being able to move a project
that no one thinks is possible. It will be interesting to see how
this one evolves. I consider him to be the Thomas Edison of our time
and would not bet against anything that he's advocating.

You have to remember that Greg thinks anything new is impossible for one
reason or another. :-)

If they hired a lot of union labor, maybe the CA liberals would go along.

Elon musk has 3 operations, and this will make the 4th, all subsidized by
the government. He is like Edison, in most of Edison patents were done by
someone working for him. SpaceX interviews prospective engineers and rips
off the design they are asked to do. Part of the interview process is
signing away anything shown in the interview.

I've was involved in giving deposition in a lawsuit for something like
this although it didn't involve anything disclosed during an interview
for a job. A company can legally claim rights to anything designed or
developed by an employee while they are employed by the company and if
the subject item is part of the company's business area or products.

If an employee developed something *before* they became employed, he
retains the rights to it (if patented) or it becomes a negotiated
issue. "Prior knowledge" or something like that. Usually something
developed that becomes patented lists the individual employee or
employees responsible for it's design as the "inventor" but the rights
to it are assigned to the company.

It was a while ago though and I've forgotten all the details.

Musk is an amazing guy but this is a Mars shot in this environment and
not near as exciting in the long run.

Not impossible technically, only politically and financially.

I have always been in charge of adversity and if things worked right,
my phone would never ring, so I try to see problems down the road and
do my best to avoid them.
