Resistance to New Levitant Technology

[wargod@tca.net]

     It's odd, but with all the various discussions worldwide, I have
found nothing but resistance to any newly-proposed technologies. Since
the late 1980's, I've been refining a variant on the levitant-type
technologies which does not require any new materials nor advances in
technology in order to implement - it lacks only the funding.
	In a search to find any group(s) interested in investigating
this design, I have sought out Universities, Venture Capital groups,
even contacted Congressmen...in all this, I have recieved one
communication - Southwest Airlines (a U.S. domestic carrier) notified
me that their agreement with the terminals they service prevented my
ability to inquire as to whether airline passengers would take
alternate forms of transportation if as fast and the same cost, but
which were not airplanes.
	I was frankly shocked to see all support turning instead of
re-iterations of outdated rail-based technology (with its high
maintenance overhead) or such infant-technology designs as the German
Transrapid and Japanese MLU test-series for 'test installations'
rather than looking towards anythign less complex, with fewer moving
parts, or at the very least with lower EM fields within the passenger
compartment.
	If anyone knows of any group interested in a simpler
technology, I would certianly love to share it with them. Thanks for
your time.
