CONTAINER SHIPS BEWARE. According to INHABITAT, "Russia Green Lights $65 Billion Siberia-Alaska Rail and Tunnel to Bridge the Bering Strait!" Deserves the exclamation point. Not to be a pessimist, but Russian graft and corruption should make it an extra tasty crispy experience. Might be easier to use freighters if the Arctic ice keeps retreating, but we do know how to build great railroads. This is something that might have a profound effect on market logistics in Asia.
