You were really starting to sound like one of those types who doesn't think anything new should be done because it might be a disaster. A very old story in human history. The story of Icarus was such a cautionary tale.
Real heroes, like the Columbia astronauts, know that you keep trying even if sometimes your wings melt and you plunge into the sea.
I applaud the new bridge. Ayn Rand would have loved it, even if it was built in France.
