    Do you know I built a bridge once?

    - Sorry? - A bridge.

    No, I didn't know that.

    I was an engineer by trade.

    It went from Dilles Bottom, Ohio, to Moundsville, West Virginia.

    It spanned 912 feet above the Ohio River.

    12,100 people use this thing a day.

    And it cut out 35 miles of extra driving each way

    between Wheeling and New Martinsville.

    That's a combined 847,000 miles of driving a day.

    Or 25,410,000 miles a month.

    And 304,920,000 miles a year saved.
