Welcome new readers
Traffic is double an average day with first time visitors making the difference. That's due to search engine traffic from merely mentioning the bridge collapse in Minneapolis. I'm sorry you found the blog under such circumstances. Minnesota is 2nd on the list of states accounting for the most hits on the blog today. If you are from Minnesota, be assured that I am thinking of my home state tonight. I have quite a number of old friends, acquaintances, college classmates, etc. in the Twin Cities, some I haven't seen in years. The chances are slim, but still...
In the coming days there will be all kinds of ideas about what should be done to fix the nation's ailing infrastructure. Andrew Samwick has a very reasoned commentary today as well as a pointer to this James Joyner piece. I'll have more to say on this later.
In the meantime, I welcome anyone who is stumbling on this blog for the first time today, especially those from Minnesota. Be sure to come back under happier circumstances.
