You traffic jam isn't nearly so bad.....

    

                                                                                                               Consider one in China that has lasted nine days! Heads up: the CNN video report at the end of that link is in Chinese (though the print story in English)...and maybe that's what's causing the jam... because all of the road signs are in Chinese too. ("This is Bejing! We speak English here!" to misquote a former Alabama candidate for Governor.

     And you thought those miners were in for a tough time waiting till December for a rescue. At least they won't run out of gas.

     Imagine nine days on Highway 280 or I-85. In a  Hummer. With kids in the back seat.
