Yeah, the geography's a problem.

[link|http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=gravina+island&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=37.462243,60.556641&ie=UTF8&ll=55.351793,-131.694489&spn=0.052604,0.118275&t=k&z=13&om=1|Google Maps] for the proposed "Bridge to Nowhere" location.

It doesn't look like a good use for the money.

[link|http://dir.salon.com/story/news/feature/2005/08/09/bridges/index.html|Salon]'s story about it (and the other proposed bridge for Anchorage) makes it sound like a boondoggle. Sen. Stevens should have made a better case for it, rather than throwing tantrums, if it really was a good use for the money.

My $0.02.

Cheers,
Scott.
