Effects
One of the effects of building the Moki Passage would be
that national and local airlines would be redundant. A coach
on this system could make it from Los Angeles to New York in
24 hours and it would provide true door-to-door travel with
no navigation or parking problems. One could sleep, be
entertained, educated, communicate or play with the computer
on board. I believe that a system could be developed where
meals could be delivered to the coach without stopping.
The environmental effect would be truly minimal.
Another effect might be that that the apartment business
might decline. People could, and would live aboard these
coaches. The simplicity of these conveyances would imply a
cost for each of about 1/10 the cost of an auto. The concept
of travel and living would become more blended.
