So the cable pulls the payload across, to (lateral) orbital speed: this was my point about the payload bending the cable over. 1. The cable has to be strong enough to do this (which may be reasonable, given how strong it needs to be anyway

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. I'm not suggesting scribd... Google cache is not scribd; it's plain html and not heavy javascript. I only referenced scribd as an additional link automatically added that had been done

There could be bounty hunters, who wrangle asteriods and other debris to serve the ever-hungry fleet of elevators. Also, there's legit asteriod/moon mining possibilities to at least partially counter the up-traffic.

EDIT one danger with a library is it might have a theorem stronger than what you're trying to prove (and that you aren't convinced yet by). If it's applied automatically, it's not a convincing proof. (And the purpose h

In terms of business, this is freemium. People try out the free (GPL) version, and like it, want premium features, want support, want you to add features etc. There's a subtle competitive benefit of free: by providing something valuabl
