| #6 The interesting part would be how to keep the ice from forming up on the roads and if not sinking or crumbling the bridge from the weight, to just keep it drivable. What was the plan again, just gonna jet ski to Russia then down the ole DPRK and off to China, to find the friendly waters of VN unannounced? |

| #5 Might be an interesting engineering project to build a bridge across the Bering Strait. Think about it: You could get in your car and drive all the way to Moscow, Berlin, Paris, London, wherever. But then, we'd have all those people driving their cars all over America. Maybe not such a great idea after all. |

| #1 I had a friend who was born and raised on Little Diomede Island in the Bering Straits. She told me stories about nutcases who would go by various means across to Chukotka. If you want to do that you better be ready for visa applications and time consuming and daunting paperwork from the Russian authorities. M'Lady and I were going to fly our plane to Provedania and other towns but the Russian paperwork and fees were not worth it. The Russians run their country not these reality show nuts. A gift plus whatever can grease the skids worked quite well. Worked well for my friend getting his Herc loads through the officials like you know what through a tin horn. |
