Haha! Right, if we ask a liberal. Then we tell them that climate change must have been MUCH worse 10,000-12,000 years ago when the crest was eroding at a rate of 37-44 inches per year. Their eyes would glaze over at the inconvenient mathematics and they’d call us racist climate change deniers and storm off.

So you’re saying I only have 100,000 years to make up my mind if I want to ride my barrel over the Falls? After that I can just walk it over?

But I’m still PO’d about the genius class abandoning the original powerhouse below the falls. As an old engineer who does such things I have always thot they should have continually worked on and expanded that system. The water intake was upstream eliminating erosion problems and power production efficiency was the max with nearly maximum “head” to work with.——bbbuuttt that’s just me.

We have our own bunch of cousin geniuses out West destroying perfectly good, clean hydro systems because they can’t teach a fish to swim upstream?
