Once upon a time a (now deceased) Alaska Governor proposed building a 36" WATER pipeline from his (note male gender, so you Palin-haters piss off) to California.
36 _inches_?
You're clearly not an engineer. Even 72 inches is a joke. The aquaducts feeding southern California from the north are more like 36 _feet_.
Oh, California runs a budget surplus. It happened after the Democrats took full control. That's not a coincidence.
And that pipeline was rejected as science-fiction. Plus it would have cost $150 billion. In 1991 dollars. Before the usual cost inflation of any project. And run undersea, through an active earthquake zone.
