     • Kurt      Only that life is fragile. Carpe diem.    •
John      We have learned that collapse is happening all around
us. From our infrastructure to our economy to our trust in
government, police and news media.    • Joberg      If you are a
personal injury attorney, the road to wealth arrives with more
bridges falling down.    • Lou      After watching the state
legislature the past two years when cutting every government
function was considered and yet enough funds were provided to
build a stadium for the Vikings, I would say that we have
learned nothing. It is only a matter of time before another part
of our infrastructure crumbles.    • glenn      There was NO
REASON for the bridge to fall. Should MnDOT wish to repair any
bridge- CLOSE IT!!      NOTE- Rivets had been poping out of this
structure for many years.     • Ann      Does anyone know why
people in New York and Europe could build bridges and buildings
that last over 100 years, but builders in Minnesota have their
road bridges and Metrodomes
