"It sounded like the future — a 600mph train taking people from San Francisco to Los Angeles in just 30mins. In fact it sounded like a future too good to be true. And so it seems to have proven. As Alistair Charlton at IBTimes reports, Elon Musk, the man behind PayPal, Tesla and Space X has admitted that Hyperloop is a step too far  and he should never have mentioned it in the first place — 'I think I shot myself in the foot by ever mentioning the Hyperloop. I'm too strung out.' Oh well, let's hope SpaceX works out a bit better ... "

Considering that SpaceX has already sent materials to the ISS and retrieved the capsule, it seems to have worked out pretty well so far.

Disappointing but whatever. I guess this was pretty much expected. 

And I wanted to pay $5 to go from San Francisco to Dallas in under 3 hours. Poo.

Maybe he should do it in Europe where the Large Hadron Collider is and replace it with it once we find the new particle. That way the tunnel is already built, just build a new tunnel going from Europe to England and to America thus connecting the world. Sounds like a much better idea than just connection American states.
