FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME, MR. RUMELHART!

MY ARGUMENT DOES NOT CONCERN THE PROCESS REQUIRED IN OBTAINING A PERMIT.

Here is another hint.

Picture, if you will . . .

- A 467-feet long, 800-ton megaload traversing north on US95 thru Moscow (Washington 
Street) as it approaches the curves in the road (by the Corner) that merges with south-bound US95 in Moscow (Jackson Street).

- That same 467-feet long, 800-ton megaload traveling east on I-90 (just east of Cd'A) as it approaches the Veterans Memorial Bridge.

NOW, DO YOU GET IT?

'Nuff said!!!

Seeya 'round town, Moscow, because . . .
