I have a question for you, Snowshoe: Can they build a viable pipeline in AK if the permafrost continues to melt? Won't that make the pipeline unstable over time?

The Russians are extending the Siberian railway east to meet us. I have met the engineers planning the link from Yakutsk to Chukotka and have seen their design for a tunnel under the Bering Strait. This project can be a symbol of a new era of U.S.-Russia relations and will be the trip of a lifetime. It will also carry the resources of the Arctic to the world. I don't think there is any way that will be cost effective, at least not any time soon.
