Yup: beanstalks are a workaround for the terribly punishing terms of the rocket equation, but when you have magic carpets (and, perhaps even more importantly, can build them yourself, at any size you like)... One's on the hazy edge of theoretically possible real-world engineering and materials science, while the other is outright fantasy. -- --------------- Kelly St. Clair xxxxxx@efn.org
