you know I built a bridge once sorry a
bridge no I didn't lie I was an engineer
by trade mm-hmm he went from Dill's
bottom Ohio to Moundsville West Virginia
its band 912 feet above the Ohio River
12100 people use this thing a day and it
cut out
35 miles of extra driving each weigh
between Wheeling and new Martinsville
that's a combined 847 thousand miles of
driving a day for 25 million four
hundred and ten thousand miles a month
and three hundred four million nine
hundred and twenty thousand miles a year
say now I completed that project in 1986
that's 22 years ago so all of the life
of that one bridge that's six billion
seven hundred and eight million two
hundred and forty thousand miles that
haven't had to be driven at what let's
say 50 miles an hour so that's what
that's a
134 million 906 4800 hours or five
hundred fifty nine thousand 20 days so
that one little bridge has saved the
people of those two communities that
combined 1531 years of their lives not
wasted in a car
1531 years is
