Thanks for researching that, capn

Part of it was "state pride"; I've lived in PA all my life, and the Turnpike is the fastest route between my home and my parents', when I visit for holidays. The part about the construction cost being long paid off is true. I didn't dig far enough to find whether the surplus stays in the PennDoT budget, or goes to the state's General Fund.
I'll add my congrats to Growltigga while I'm here, but I'll pass on the cigar.
