in about 1960 our township in Indiana decided to pave the gravel roads (massive project). they used ripper bars and molested 100 years of limestone compaction. mixed hot tar in the loose stone. Smashed it down with rollers then put 4" of new Asphalt over it. Boy oh Boy was it smooth that fall. Then we had a typical Indiana late fall Freeze Thaw set in for a week. Every foot of the road was buckled and broken they were not drivable at all. School was called off for 2.5 weeks till it could be graded and hauled away enough to have cars and buses pass. Most chunks were 4 inches thick and 3 feet by 2 feet in size. with gnarley stones stuck to the bottom. Civil Engineering at its finest. Jim
