H+ visits the Space Elevator Conference

*We used to have Presidents and Soviet Premiers hammering the podium with big national space initiatives. Now you set up a website, offer $2million bounty prizes and fly in the geeks.

*Nice to hear that the premier threat to a space elevator isn't terrorists, mafia, kidporn, or drug dealers, but, rather, leftover chunks of rocketing old-fashioned space-junk.
