To see how massive this $1/2 billion project is and the extent to which it completely re-configures the border areas, download the GOOGLE EARTH image overlay KMZ.
WOW! Scroll right.
Sorry, David. It's WIDE animated image GIF. And a cool KMZ file. Anyone feel like trying to make this into a nice fade-thru using Photoshop?

I think that's the first section of the moat. It's about time.

Let's hope there are "Night-Vision" cameras to catch the feedings.
A contract with Reality TV would pay for the project.
And, the Gators get Fat.
Win-Win-Win.
