Last Wednesday Elon Musk tweeted that he had "verbal govt approval" for a hyperloop to run from NYC to D.C. What govt? There may be a hundred govts that have jurisdiction along that route.
The New York mayor's office says, "“This is news to City Hall."
Many would love to see the hyperloop come to life, like this author, but the obstacles are huge. Just getting the approval of every government level from NYC to D.C. seems overwhelming.
We'd like to believe it could be done, but we fear that it's not going to happen, or that the idea is just (in the words of a comment) --
"Hyperloopy. . extreme mental loopiness."
