Somebody needs to invent a road-building material
similar to spandex. Would be great here in the Plains.

That would take care of those potbellies in the spring.

New kind of spring flower.  The grounds were crowded with bluebells and potbellies.

Spandex roads! Now that would be interesting! I got a message from someone saying that they were actually tried, of a sorts - Spandex road surfacing--- there has been such a surface invented and tested in AZ. Not spandex, but they were mixing asphalt with ground-up tires, and while it was more expensive initially, it was maintenance-free and lasted a very long time. It was a John Stossel special back in the late 90's... and I think it was either AZ state hwy 10 or I-10. Missouri was thinking of doing it, but found it was not cost effective, probably because someone at the Missouri dept of Transportation had an uncle or cousin working for an asphalt company.

And use up the piles of worn out tires ruining the landscape
and the entrance to many towns and villages. Give them
a useful purpose other than artificial reefs off the coasts.

Spandex can cover or reveal a multitude of sins.
