It all started with these Two Guys.....  
Greg Maizlish -  Attorney for the Indigent - Transit Planner for the Agile Middle Class   mswitch

Maizlish grew up in L.A. and became disgusted as freeways became more and more congested. As an attorney, he once made a critical court date by driving coolly on the road shoulder past gridlock. Contemplating the millions of people who sit in traffic jams daily, and recalling the many occasions with his father and Gene Roddenberry when they were creating Star Trek episodes, he creatively envisioned a transit solution.

He is a graduate of UC Berkeley and Loyola School of Law, where we was closely tutored by Jesuits, and aside from his notoriety in the fight against traffic congestion, he lives a quiet life in a nice home with his wife Gretchen. They gather rare and collectible mineral and gemstones on long Southern California mountain and desert hikes, and he is a former president of the Lapidary Society of San Diego. He is as comfortable traveling with the Grateful Dead to Alaska as with bringing litigation before the Supreme Court of the United States (most notably the famous Hicks case) and is Amicus Curiae before the California Supreme Court and Fourth District, Court of Appeal. ("Amicus Curiae" is a "friend of the court" - a status granted by reviewing courts due to expertise). He also litigated pretrial a number of major privacy suits against a local San Diego TV and media outlets. Despite many winning trades in Tech Stocks such as Qualcomm, Novell and Microsoft, he insists on defending the indigent who are unable to afford attorneys. To compensate for the lengthy time spent sitting behind the wheel of a car in traffic jams, he practices the ultramodern and exclusive Egoscue Method of postural realignment.




Andrew Smith Hallidie  1836-1900

Dealt with weak horses and steep slopes by powering cars through a cable, and his system still operates in San Francisco. He prospected for gold as a young man, had an interest in bridge building, and was a regent of the University of California. The picture is published by permission from the Cable Car Museum, which can be visited on Mason Street in S.F.  Cable cars were subsequently operated in most major US cities. Note that the current Hallitube system is powered by cart-born electro-motors, but in a hilly environment, three cables running at different speeds besides the driver can be used in lieu of equipping the cart with more wheels or lower gears for better hill-climbing capacity. This approach preserves a motor/cart design  primarily aiming for level or mild grades, with fewer wheels  and less traction features.  



The Hallitube Volunteer Staff


Includes web developers, physicists and engineers who all devote their time to this critical project. There are opportunities for you to volunteer and participate in a complete change of the transportation infrastructure. Contact us at [email protected]. We don't have enough staff yet to answer phone calls from the public. Let us know what you think. We apologize for bandwidth problems, we will assign server regions at the time of the news release.
We need a new order in transportation.
