When will /n/ take the elevator pill?

Elevators are frequent, free, and show up on demand. They are automated as well.

theoretically you could build a sideways elevator and replace cars/trams/buses in urban areas

Elevators ELEVATE and that means GO UP, learn English retard
stop calling sideways-ators "ELEVATORS"

Elevate is meant more in a spiritual sense. You're being ELEVATED to a higher level of transit technology.
Learn English retard

Wrong. If an elevator is going down, does that mean it's no longer an elevator?
I want to see elevators moving on all axises rather than just up and down.
Between buildings and floors, across streets and cities, through to subways! No more will you have to suffer the outdoors.

Best elevator I ever rode was this one in an old hotel in Istanbul. No inner door, no automated outer door. If you didn't get outer door closed exactly right it'd snap shut with this real loud clunk that would echo up and down the shaft so you could hear it on all the floors.
Was pretty comfy to watch the layers of stuff passing by between the floors.
