This would be SO FUCKING COOL!
Proposed tunnel connecting Alaska to Russia, complete with highway, train tracks, oil pipeline, and fiber optic communication cables. You could take a train from NYC to London, thru Canada, Alaska, Russia, through all of Europe, then the Chunnel, to England! Freaking sweet.

Or you could just fly there in 7 hours.

doesn't 11 days on a train sound much better?

There wouldn't be much traffic through that tunnel. There are so few people in Alaska and nobody wants to go to Russia.

Well, surely it would more the sort of trip where you wanted to see fuck-tons of countries along the way and take your time. It certainly wouldn't be ideal for the weekend getaway.

I think it would actually be incentive to move to Alaska. It would just be mind-blowing to be able to drive to Russia for lunch, or for a quick nip o' wodka at the ol' bar-ski.

Russia sucks. Why dig a $65 billion tunnel to eat cabbage and potatoes?

Isn't prostitution legal in Russia? So, you could pop over there, legally bang a hooker, and be back in time for dinner.

Or you could fly to Nevada for prostitutes that have health certificates. Trust me. A buddy of mine road the rail through Russia. They served cabbage soup on the train one day...Potato soup the next...all warmed over an open flame.
I'd prefer some decent roads be built here. Add to the interstate system that's been basically the same since the 60s while the population has exploded. I know. Boring. Or how about some mega-high speed rail for the continental United States?

That would be cool. But who can afford a ticket to Vegas? Not me. A quick 60-mile drive, though, I'm on it.

Ok, How much fucking stock do you have in this stupid tunnel? I haven't seen enthusiasm like this since Bush was selling the war.

I think its a good idea but in order to use it people would have to fly to alaska and rent a car. Why not just fly straight to Russia? I do agree it may help get people to move to Alaska based on more business in the region.
We can hire the Mexicans that are tunneling into the southwestern states to work on this project.

One question: Would Russians also be able to take the tunnel to America? I think you're going to regret that decision!
And why are we building a wall to keep out Mexicans and a tunnel to let in Russians? Why not build a tunnel from Mexico to Russia and get it over with? Call it the "Habitrail of Tears."

Maybe then the illegals will keep going on to Russia and pass us by. Problem solved! :lol:
