Huge Chunk of the Bay Bridge Floats to Half Moon Bay
Tons of plastic fendering all in one big chunk
Check it out. This is part of the fender that protected the San Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge during last month's Cosco Busan incident. It floated thirty miles all the way down to Redondo Beach in Half Moon Bay. Sorry HMB! Our bad. Little help?
But you can't just put it back in place because the delta tower has already been fixed. Would some people like this semi-buoyant plastic to be a different color so that it will be easier to spot and less of a hazard to navigation the next time it goes for a swim? YES! Would some people prefer a different fender design altogether? It certainly looks that way. Maybe we'll get a new design put up. Someday.

Break it into tiny pieces and sell them as holy relics.
You know- the way they do with pieces of, "The True Cross of Jesus"
Use money for the birds with the profits.
I see eBay in this jewel's future - look at it as a gift to help mitigate that whole bankruptcy thing.
