			Lout: SF in general feels like a very disconnected city. That's why that's the idea of a mass flying transportation system is interesting. I just question the realisticness of the idea.
			Quinn: I think we should do it. I think if it should happen anywhere it should be here.

			Lout: Even a drone taxi system would be cool. It's one of those things that is fun to think about. Especially across the Bay, it's a large stretch of space to do something with.
			Quinn: Something around the peninsula would be cool.
			Lout: The entire Sunset is difficult to park and get to. It'd be nice to get something out there.
			Quinn: The N goes out there.
			Lout: Yeah, that's the only one. In general, there's a lot of fun stuff out there -- the beach..etc. Have you considered Hydrofoil Taxis? I think they're a awesome concept that I think is underutilized.
			Quinn: Yea! I love SailGP

	EDIT: NO MEETING ON 1/21 --> take time to work on "how much energy do we need for the transportation system"		EDIT: NO MEETING ON 1/21 --> take time to work on "how much energy do we need for the transportation system"

			3/3 MEETING

			Lout Virder (loutvirder@gmail.com): mechanical engineer, works out of Alameda on thermal batteries, heard about meetup through meetup, looking for fun projects in the city and this might one
			Zhanxi "Quinn" Ni (nizhanxi@icloud.com): running for Mayor on flying car platform
			Mars Nadal (mars@gun.eco): dealt with state/federal Supreme Court, have 60million users on his startup, education and economics
			Kurt Peek (kurt.peek@gmail.com): I rock climb
			Charlene Smith (charlenesmith0509@gmail.com): I would like systematic bridges of traffic by Waymo, maybe Waymo will be the top company for streaming autonomous cars

			Designs:

			Lout: blimp or helicopter or propellers, good things happening with propellers and silent propellers, need to read more papers about it
			Kurt: I interviewed at Uber Elevate, at the time I was looking at futuristic companies to work for
			Lout: third spaces -- the other place you can go to
			Lout: Things like an underground monorail or suspended monorail would be good because there is a predetermined path. Also, it takes a lot of energy to get off the ground and mass transit systems usually have to do with getting the most people around for the least amount of energy. Watch out for lowering the budget where parts will fall into disrepair.
			Quinn: Cable cars started in San Francisco in the 1800's. We should have a new mass transit system.
			Lout: Both New York and London have extremely outdated mass transit systems and there's still millions of people using it every single day.
