We should build a suspension bridge linking North America and Europe

Ok, let's go nuts here: what about an elevator to the moon? Again, all debris from the project gets dumped in France.

Already being built according to Art Bell

[jwalsh07]

That bridge has already been built.

Perhaps but no reason to compound matters.

You don't think we will roleback Amerio-socilisim do you?

I'm an eternal optimist where America is concerned, an eternal pessimist when old Europe is the topic.

If Bush didn't why do you think any future president will?

Well, we can only hope but while we're waiting let's put the Bridge Over the River Why on hold.

Again, all debris from the project gets dumped in France.

On those terms, let's build three.

Were you doing bong hits when you came up with this "idea"?

Well, dude, like, what if we had things that like, floated, you know, to hold the bridge up.

Pretty (pfffffft) simple, you know?

[Petronski]

... Bridge Over the River Why....

We have a winner. Good night everyone, drive safely.

Never heard of space elevators??

The Space Elevator Comes Closer to Reality

That's because Art is on the moon! (or is it the 'shroom?)

[Tuscaloosa Goldfinch]

re: icebergs: glad you said it. I was wondering the same thing myself.

[Doctor Stochastic]

Single span?

Still easier than the elevator to the Moon.

Good Luck
With
The Super Big Dig...

We should build it from pure unobtainium, from harvested asteroids. That would make it more economically feasible.

Over the Bearing Straits? Will happen sometime in the not to distant years. That will be your bridge to Europa. As to, if I would like to see it done? Nope!

They already have plans to lay a pipeline across the straits I hear. Lots of oil to be had in Siberia.

Sometimes I think he's on the bong express myself LOL

[I'm ALL Right!]

Build it...then paint a huge bullseye on it, as it will become the number one terrorist target in the world.

A tunnel across the Bering Strait might be technically feasible, but I can't see it becoming economically viable. Nonetheless, here's S. Berliner's Bering Strait Tunnel page.

Once we mine the planets for H3 all is gravy.

[Travis McGee]

We could use surplus nukes to dig that southern border canal pronto. El Paso would not be a big loss, but turn slightly south around San Diego.

[hedgetrimmer]

What, open up another route for the illegals to get in?
