Asinine? What's asinine? I made some observations:

1) I observed over the course of a day, whenever I turned my head to look at the bridge there was rarely any real activity. Do I think the results of that analysis are scientific? Um, no.

2) I commented that the comparison between interchanges and the bridge is not a good one - because interchanges seem to get a lot more traffic. Some folks say that interchanges cost a lot more - but as I've said before, I don't know how much they cost. I've spent a lot of time on interchanges, I know that there's a considerable larger amount of traffic on a regular basis than there was on the bridge yesterday. That's an observation. Please note - I didn't commission any studies, I have no empirical data - just some observations. Now in fairness, no one else has presented any numbers to the contrary.

Once again, do I think that they should give the bridge back? No, of course not. They should simply widen it enough to get two lanes of traffic in - that's all. See, perfectly reasonable.
