I propose to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat; the two will hover, spinning, inches above the ground. With a giant buttered-cat array, a high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago.And what happens if your little physics experiment fails? What happens if, instead of hovering like a superconducter, the magnitude of the gravitational pull splits the cat sheer in two so both the top and bottom can both land on the ground?
Actually that would be pretty cool. The train might have some problems getting approved though.
