The latest advancements in building materials and structural engineering allows us to build a bridge over the Atlantic cutting the France to USA commuting time

The latest advancements in building materials and structural engineering allows us to build a bridge over the Atlantic cutting the France to USA commuting time to a mere 30 minutes! (*) Despite the huge importance of the discovery motorists do not appear to be very satisfied with the solution. * as long as we can fold space and worm holes exist I see in my crystal ball a future where some of our existing science fields turn out to be alchemy equivalents. This kind of solutions where you just cleverly rearrange the data to satisfy a success criteria that just isn't satisfying at all for practical purposes would never fly for any real-life problems. It smells like "I make big discovery! Can I haz founding now?"
