Call your insurance company, many pick the entire tab for windshield repairs vs. paying out for a replacement.
I used to do w/s repairs, years ago. As Harvey stated, drilling a hole at the end of the crack will stop it. With a crack that long several holes will need to be drilled along the crack's length, about every inch or so, in order to repair it. Problem is most repair guys don't want to spend that much time on just one windshield. Then there is the possibility that the crack will all of a sudden decide to come back to life during the process and streak across the windshield. Then the repair person is SOL.
