It's a fine bridge....for 2.317 million. Isn't that like 2.317 billion now days?

Ha. My exact reaction, but then I checked the date on the article. Wasn't so long ago. Bet you wouldn't get a bridge reinforcement like that in Seattle for 2.3mil, or whatever the '25 equivalent in '07 money is.

Quite true. I was under the impression that the quoted text came from the previous dated paragraph until you pointed the date out. With the 400 percent inflation in some products seen in the last 6 yrs that's not so bad now!
