Invent it, already
I'm far from a Trekkie but I could really go for a teleporter right about now. Here's why:
1) I love being near my family in DC but I'd rather live somewhere else.
2) New York City is the best place ever but living there is expensive.
3) I have fallen for the Mexican culture, language, and men, but the country could use a bit of variety when it comes to food.
4) My friends live all over the world and it's impossible to visit them all.
5) There are so many places I haven't been to yet, but now I have a job. Good for money, but limits travel time.
Come on all you science geeks. You can do it! Invent a teleporter NOW. Please? Pretty please?
