Summary[edit]

Description

The latest iteration on the Boring Company masterplan to resolve soul deadening traffic.

We started at the car elevator and came out at the Boring work yard with the Monty Python tower made of tunneled bricks. And also reviewed the various tunnel projects, starting in Vegas.

Did you know that a tunnel is just about the best terrestrial place to be in an earthquake? Like a hurricane at sea, the waves are a surface effect, and the depths move in bulk. More on that for the curious, below.

My momentarily public video got <a href="https://streamable.com/jhvj5" rel="noreferrer nofollow">reposted various places</a> and generated an <a href="https://electrek.co/2019/06/21/tesla-model-3-elon-musk-boring-company-tunnel-video" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Electrek</a> story.

Boring is a great example of the disruptive playbook we look for - the four largest tunnel construction companies in the U.S. were founded in the 1800s! Like the automotive and aerospace sectors, they haven’t faced a disruptive new entrant in their management’s collective lifetime. Construction is one of the industries we are focusing on at Future Ventures.
