"Vulcan engineers help construct the first roadway to float in the air"
They said take a left at the fork in the road.  I didn't think they literally meant a fork, until plain as day, there was a fork sticking out of the road at a junction.

Call me Kenny/Kenneth. No, seriously.

Underwater routes that still have their signs visible above the surface.
It's all fun & games until someone summons Cthulhu and brings about the end of the world.

I also collect traffic lights, road signs, fans, and railroad crossing equipment.

Seeing as the sixth such vote in 20 years was defeated just tonight 80-20, I don't see it going away anytime soon.

But how are we to know if there will be a Venice, France in 2064?  :biggrin:

But it's all good, Ik what you meant.

A bigger question is "is there going to be an Italy or a France in 2064?"

The answer is likely no as the Glorious Democratic Free People's Wonderful European Super Fantastic State* will break up countries and in odd ways to stop any concept of subregions being homogeneous nations as they hate the idea of nations (hence why they strongly opposed Scottish Independence, and denied Bosnia and Herzegovina the right to self-determination, among other things).

*I'm not sure I've put in enough words that mean somewhere great to live but imply not.

One thing that I don't understand is the ethnic fighting in places like eastern Europe. For example, Albanians and Serbians hate each other and have fought against each other. Here in the good ol' USA, both the Serbian guy and the Albanian guy would just be known as "white guys" and probably wouldn't even know the ethnicity of the other person. I'm a mutt, and I've been asked if I was anything from Puerto Rican to Native American to Scandinavian to French (I'm mostly British, with some German, French, Belgian, eastern European, European Jewish, Iberian (Spain and Portugal) and a tiny bit of Scandinavian and Irish. These were from my DNA test results.

All you have to think about is, people of ethnic group X raped/killed/enslaved/pillaged/evicted/conquered your mother/father/uncle/sister/grandmother (or you) and others of the same persuasion simply because you are of ethnic group Y.  It helps if they more or less got away with it.
