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. ----please, draw me a sheep---- Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Re: Single word for "blessing and curse"?

Give them a useful purpose other than artificial reefs off the coasts. ----please, draw me a sheep---- Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Re: Single word for "blessing and curse"?
