Why do we continue to advance technology? Is it economically motivated? Is it for a better lifestyle or a higher standard of living? To extend life, forever? Do any of these questions matter?

Nanotechnology is predicted to bring amazing advances for society. But what has not been discussed is if humanity actually needs it.

An education video describing how the cool technology of superconductors in magnetic levitation works.

See
http://amasci.com/maglev/magroll.html EM repulsion lifts a neodymium magnet above two spinning copper pipes. Also see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOaBnJ... I bought my supermagnets from Mr. George "magnetman," also from wondermagnet.com. The pipes are thick-wall schedule-80 copper pipes from the scrap bin at Alaskan Copper and Brass. The motor is a replacement sewing machine motor from Grainger catalog. Speed control is a 1000-watt triac lamp dimmer.

These trains float off the ground! How does it work? It is propelled by the guidway itself rather than an onboard engine by changing magnetic fields. Once the train is pulled into the next section the magnetism switches so that the train is pulled on again.
