This looks to me like the gravitational waves won't quite be what's needed for levitational goodness. So, the superconducting slab reflects EM waves as gravity waves. the problem being, that they are waves, and rather high frequency ones at that. so.. no push without a pull, no net force over long time intervals.
oh well. the possiblity ofcommunication through solid matter is absurdly useful in itself.. or perhaps they could make a long distance vibrator..
