It's very sad what happened but with Pete Buttigieg in charge they should be up in running by 2050.

Watched a clip last evening about the bridge disaster. One segment was by a CALT***S spokesman. He was saying that the supports for the bridges in San Francisco Bay are constructed differently than the ones shown holding the Maryland bridge. He said that if a ship hit one of the SF bridges the damage would have been far less because of the construction. I have been wondering if the difference in construction is because California is subject to earthquakes and construction there is because of the increased need to withstand the shaking. Perhaps if the ramming of the base of the bridge is somewhat comparable to the jolting by and earthquake the bridges in California will truly be stronger in the same kind of action.
Brings another thought to mind also. I have read of the New Madrid Fault in Missouri becoming more active. The last big event there was in 1811 and there are now many more people and dramatically more infrastructure today. Are the people there prepared for what might be a similar event if the shaking is comparable. How many bridges cross the Mississippi and may also fall.

That soon? He could barely handle South Bend. Played golf there, BTW....a mile away from Notre Dame.

Watch the the tape 8X's faster. It almost looks like it was done on purpose.

Perhaps. If so 'accidents' like this are sure to increase.
