I'm actually from that area and recently been back to take the glass bottom boat tour. The monkey's are pretty illusive and usually stay away from humans and live in the Silver Springs state park, which is next to the Ocala national forest (second largest nationally protected forest in the US). I remember the guide telling us only a few people have died from contact. In those cases were reseacher/scientist that had been studying the monkeys and had been urinated on (in the face in one case). The monkey's do bring tourist dollars to a pretty poor economic area.

Just go to the ones that interest you. meetup.com is a great place to find hack nights, meet friends, and find startups. When I first moved here I went to Ruby meetups, hack nights, dev talks. I quickly realized that everyone here was way smarter than I was and it was awesome. So much to learn.

The article says "800 mph". Meaning it would be around 30 minutes. Not including accel/decel. No? It takes a flight hour to hour and a half from LA <> SF.

Wow, almost $2.5B at today's cost. There is no way that they would allow that much today.
