My buddy's Rotary Club meeting was attended by Dan McElroy this morning. His
reaction to the coming tide of comments regarding the short-sightedness of
under-funding infrastructure for the sake of reducing taxes for... well, you
know... -was that the blame should be on Quie or Carlson. Uh, yeah. Sure.
At any rate, I was with Chuck about the Lafayette. That thing did see some big
re-hab work fairly recently (Or was it--- I seem to be getting too old to note
the real passage of time...) but I still get the heebie-jeebies when I'm on it.
It is the world's longest concrete bridge, no? And from the 20s?
Yikes.
And, has anyone else noticed the rust-through on the bridge supports on that RR
bridge under Robert St? I saw that last summer, and I just figured, well, they
have to know what they're doing....
