Ray Bradbury's vision of a monorail over L.A.

In 1963, a company offered to build a monorail system for Los Angeles free of charge in exchange for the right to operate it and collect tolls. City leaders turned it down, betting on highways instead. (And we all know how well that turned out.)

More than four decades after he first supported the proposal, Ray Bradbury still thinks it's a good idea - and, in a recent Op-Ed for the Los Angeles Times, makes a persuasive argument why it makes a lot more sense than another subway.
