Continuing on yesterday's theme of wacky transportation ideas, Anaheim Mayor Curt Pringle has invoked the "monorail" as a solution to his city's desire to connect itself to itself. In his State of the City address, Pringle laid out his plan to build a monorail system using private funds. Via the OC Register:

"A top priority is to seek funding from the private sector to build a monorail system running from the Disneyland area to the proposed Anaheim Regional Transit Intermodal Center east of Angel Stadium in the Platinum Triangle, which the city is trying to turn into an urban village." Pringle proposes to ask Disney and other private businesses for $250 million to build the three-mile system.
