Rss[/LEFT];208984]Are you counting in permafrost and other hellish effects of Siberian climate?

How cold do you think North Dakota gets? Minnesota?.

On thing is shizzle: Not as cold as Siberia. Plus, distances between settlements and cities are way bigger.

Ehm...the pictures in the first post AREN'T from Siberia. They could at least pave their major highways.

No one actually lives in Siberia, do they?

Not of their own Free Will, iirc.

Look again, Yakutsk is located in Eastern Siberia.

And why would no one live in Lovely Sibir? Fresh air, beautiful nature, mammoths and all cretins are thousands of kilometers away in the west. On in the east. Dunno.

Um.. Well, how should i put it?.. oh **** it, i'll do this without any sarcasm - "they do".

Novosibirsk is in Siberia, with 1.5 million folks.

Wikipedia doesn't have a population estimate, other than "three people per square kilometer," which sounds awfully round. With some 10 million square kilometers, though, you get a population ballpark of 30 million people.

well **** man, it is too ****ing cold to go there and actually count

 

[Gomer Pyle]

Actually the USA is about half the size of Russia and we have all of our roads paved.

We do? There are hundreds, if not thousands, of dirt roads in this area (northern PA, upstate NY). Maybe all major highways and suburban roads are paved but there are plenty of dirt roads left in country areas.

 

[Britney Federline]

Also, because of global warming, the permafrost of the world is beginning to disappear.

This road will start looking like this more often in the future.

Although a map based on this would be great! All movement cut to 5% of normal rate, if you go prone you have a 50% chance of getting back up--FUN!

It is Siberia. Likely a site of road has washed away after a rain. Roads there are. To lay them and to serve very expensively . 1 kilometer in Siberia is more expensive than near Moscow, 1 kilometer near Moscow in 10 is more expensive than times than in Texas . Up to the Ural all Russia can be gone round without a jeep. Roads are worse than the Europe . After the Ural the road system is near large cities and the industrial .

On a photo it is visible trucks and cars. In Siberia there are even graders .

And God forbid I was being ironic with my statement. That couldn't possibly be the case, now could it? I mean seriously, that would mean I'm not ignorant, and if you're on the internet making a joke about another country that obviously means you are ignorant!

Hey, It's Russia. US would go bancrupt if it'd try to pave half of those roads.

most civilized countries have had a paved road & highway system since the 1950s.

 

[Rameusb5]

When I visited Brazil this summer someone there told me that the US automotive industry paid for a big chunk of thier highways.

Perhaps Russia should call up Ford and Chevy and see if they're feeling magnanimous again?

 

[Valac]

Perhaps I should call ford and tell them I need a new driveway. Sounds silly to me.

What about the Romans?

They would do it if you promised to buy fords the rest of your life.

If they did pay to pave a lot of the highways, that means their vehicles would get more use and they would sell more vehicles....it certainly doesn't sound silly to me, it actually sounds ingenius.

Maybe I'm showing my roots a bit here, but...

DAMN that would be fun to tear down on a four wheeler. WOOOHOOO!!!
