It's a neat idea. So is SpaceX using the reusable rocket for point to point global travel anywhere in under 30 minutes. Technically feasible, but how many bazillionares really need to save a couple of hours are there anyway?

From an "American ingenuity can do great things" standpoint, I freaking love this. But there's a better than even chance there's going to be a whole lot of cheap hangar space available in GSO in a few years.

(thanks for posting the link. I really did enjoy it, no sarcasm.)
