what part of joke do you not understand?

what an idiot you are, it didnt really happen, it was a simulation.

The 520 Bridge is frightening. It's so sketchy, it could probably break in two if a bus full of fat kids going to camp drove over it.

Best to apply soon while you still have all the answers.

So far, we've yet to encounter an earthquake strong enough to destroy the 520 bridge. But it's still a good idea to replace the aging bridge with a new bridge, whether it's another floating bridge or an elevated bridge.

Screen-name has nothing to do with niggerball! mahalo!

yes all those scientists with facts data and historical evidence on their side who correctly predicted the events of the indian ocean tsunami and the haitti earthquake- yes damn libtards- with their understanding of science and engineering- instead of believing in sky gods and burying their heads in the sand like guys who name themselves after a shitty embarrassing football team- im glad theres people studying these events and trying to warn of potential danger-Go Patriots!!!

"vehicles would likely be on bridge during earthquake."

bwhahahahahahaha are you serious? no way!

[seattlehawkins]

Scare tactics by libtards to extract more cash to fund art programs for light rail bums to look at! Mahalo!

I understand what you are trying to say but of the 6.6 million people in WA, something like 1.5 million live in Eastern WA. That means that the tax burden is on Western WA, not on you. I would go as far as saying that we pay for you, not the other way around. If we ever do let you guys break off as the 51st state, then we will see truly how well you fare on your own without Puget Sound tax support.

Perhaps you could tax us more to redo all of the bridges on the west side of the state. Heck while you are at it you can tax the entire east side to pay for bridges on the west side, just because you dirt bags can.

oh so now we are talking post apocalyptic. deep mann!
