Thanks for the links. I have read a bunch of sci-fi books that use the space elevator in their plots. Some interesting but others really take a lot of liberties with the physics of actually doing it. I understand they are fiction but the topic is always interesting to see how they over come some of the problems. All in all some creative ways of dealing with space travel come out of them.
