Oh boy I will have to take my good friend Obama water skiing through it with my 800 hp boat.

The environmental wackos must be having a fit.

Is a canal not viable? Doesn't seem much advantage other than avoiding dangerous area's and don't cut any time off the voyage!

2.7 Billion? And they are building it because 33 people have been killed in stormy waters since WWII? Huh?

There are intersections around here that have taken more people than that in the past 5 years - and we cant even get stoplights!

I'm guessing that the tunnel will actually have less of an environmental impact than a canal would.

The young kids will use that for the tunnel of love, and there will be rubbers floating everywhere,
