I want a turbo lift really badly! I want it for my room. Just so I can go from upstairs to downstairs. (I admit it, I am lazy)

I think turbo lifts would be cool, but as mentioned earlier I do not think they would be feasible for short distances, like from a second floor to a first floor only, that my opinion.

one word: 'Wonkavator!'

and while turbolifts are a little nearer to reality, transporter technology would spell great advancement on a planetary scale

we already have 'turbolifts'. They are just horizontal/vertical elevators.

Turbo lifts go faster though and run on diferent princpls of movement then the elevators do, we don't have them, we don't even have voice activated elivators yet.
