Hit the road, Jack
It took the Roman Empire centuries to build 50,000 miles of roads. We did it in a couple decades. We rock. And this week is the 50th anniversary of the Interstate Highway System, brought into existence by my personal savior, President Eisenhower. Over here you will find an informative history of the highway system. You can also go here or to the ever-useful wikipedia if the first one didn't slake your thirst for highway knowledge.
[wik] This is interesting, too: a proposal for a Transglobal Highway.

Any thoughts on why the thing
Any thoughts on why the thing ends (or begins) with 2 routes in the vicinity of Montreal? One passes north of the Great Lakes, one south, yet both run to the NE and end there. Odd.
I think it would be cool just for its own sake, but can't imagine the tolls. And you know it would be heavily tolled. "Per axle: $500" or some such.
Um, durr, because that's
Um, durr, because that's where the Transglobal Landfill will be!
