I'm sorry but to characterize PRT as the "next bold step in transportation" is patently ridiculous and false as the idea has been floating around for decades. Elon Musk's vacuum tube transport has been around for about 125 years--take a look in the London Underground museum sometime to see how old the idea is. I've got nothing against any of these ideas, but they're not new and so far, they haven't proved very effective in experiments or appetizing price-wise to build out.
