    (a) Cool!

    (b) Rather than working on a faster means of travel, why not work instead, or simultaneously, on a means of extending life. 200 Years of travel is more tolerable if one lives to be 300 or more. With genetics controlling the aging process, it seems we are far closer to this than the former.

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.
