Guptar: they would find a technical solution for a bridge over the Cook Straight. Yes I know it's 24km and 1000 ft deep with fast flowing a current. But if man can land a probe on a comment, a bridge shouldn't be that hard.
Yep that bridge has been talked about a few times, the last time I recall was when Prince Charles was here a few years ago when he stumbled across a bottle with a Genie.
The Genie offered him one wish, since he was in New Zealand he thought he'd ask for something that would benefit New Zealand and asked for a bridge across Cook Strait.
The Genie replied "Don't you realise how difficult it would be to build a bridge across such a rough stretch of water, the foundations would be enormous, the amount of concrete in the pillars would be astronomical, why don't you choose another wish?"
Charles thought carefully for a while and then asked "Can you make Camilla more beautiful?"
The Genie responded "That bridge you wanted, two lanes or four?"
