The Corner is abuzz with talk of Space Elevators, one of those science fiction-y things that sounds relatively feasible. Relatively in the sense that it sounds more doable than, say, light-speed travel or teleportation.
Space elevators. It’s been bugging me all day. Where have I heard of that before?
Oh! Of course…in DC Comics’ Hammerlocke! (Not that they originated the concept, but it is an idea that’s been around a while.)
