Re: To Remove The Gap Between North & South Countries By The Spacewarp Technology
A couple of thoughts:
Generating such a warp in the gravity well of earth would likely shatter the planet from the gravitational shear forces. If not, it will certainly make the weather interesting as energy forces 1000000000% more than a hurricane generate storms that should create a funnel reaching to the edge of space.
Transporation unions would unhappy. Some SciFi short story back in the 70's was based on that very plot point. Airline mergers would be moot.
Terrorism might be a much bigger problem.
People would have a really interesting tan from the cherenkov (sp?) radiation as the warp collapes. Duck and cover!
