Didn't we see this crap idea in Popular Mechanics back in 1958, 1962, 1966, 1970 ect... I think the SST was the best idea for international travel, but alas, the environmental NAZIS killed off that technological achievment. Welcome to the stone age of international travel.

Why is it that stupid people seem to be the only ones that bandy about the word "nazi" in regards to anyone they disagree with? Can't you just say that you strongly disagree? Why do you have to go the extreme hyperbole route? That's just childish.

The only problem with the SST is the sudden noise it makes as it flys over head (sonic boom). Having been hit by one of these, I'll stick with the conventional aircraft. This is the only reason the concord was restricted to trans-ocean flights (when flying over land, the concord was restricted to under trans-sonic speeds, thus making it a fuel hog).
