I was wondering... they say by 2019, we should have some sort of space elevator thing going on. What do you guys think about that? Is that a reasonable...
Time is not as important as money, here. With proper funding, I don't see why we shouldn't have a space elevator by 2019. However, one should think about the...

I'd say 'uncalculable damage' is an overstatement. If I recall correctly, the potential damage for the breaking of a 'ribbon design' elvator has been...
... It depends on where it breaks, of course. If it breaks (somebody blows up the tethering place on the floating platform, flies a plane into it, or it gets ...
"Incalculable damage" can't be an overstatement at all : it simply means you can't predict the damage. It may be $1 or many kajillion dollars, you can't ...
"Time is not as important as money, here. With proper funding, I don't see why we shouldn't have a space elevator by 2019." You're quite right. We often...

Probably already thought of and maybe already mentioned, but there is some danger in leaving an elevator ribbon in place, so have times of lots of traffic, and...

Screaming, yes! It would be better up than down. It would take some thrust to maintain position and altitude while pulling the ribbon up, but it would be more...

OK, so winding it up would be done by fabricating tubes like the spiral tubes you got in a roll of paper towels, or how they make Trident missles. Up and down...

I can hardly pass up this opportunity to offend both yourself and Mark at the same time! No, and it did not take a Ph.D. to invent duct tape. Surely, you may...

I'm glad that you concur with me that cryogenic engines are the easier way to space. I actually love the idea of an elevator to orbit, and it might be possible...
