I say screw the bridge...give everyone a hundred grand for their inconvenience and use the remaining billion to get a high-speed ferry service going** *$1.4 billion is probably low, and does not include the hundreds of millions of dollars it is going to cost to keep Highway 12 open over the next 50 or so years. **If you don't think tourists will visit the southern Outer Banks on a ferry, you probably haven't been west of East Lake in 30 years!
