Should we spend billions and billions of dollars upgrading the current distribution systems in order to handle the increased capacity, which will be needed? The current distribution models are old and archaic. The railroad is ancient and our roads and highways do not make a lot of sense, there are better ways to move stuff that would be more efficient too.There have been many ideas floated such as giant canals to deliver salt water to desalination plants and floating cargo on giant aerial sky barge like blimps. Some have discussed magnetic levitated high-speed rail, even with the German derailment last week killing all aboard as it hit a Utility Truck on the track.In the future there will be Star Trek like transporter rooms perhaps and currently some brilliant MIT Graduate Students are taking the printing concepts sending the cad cam design and printing what you need where you need it. Perhaps a room full of molecules can be waiting for the design description and simply assimilate. Sure, that is likely in the future too. Meaning you never need to ship anything really, as everything is made up of the periodic table right? Perhaps you will consider all this in 2006.
