It also altered the course of the Mississippi River - and didn’t it run backwards too? Do you remember how big it was? I used to know but can’t remember.

There are those that say the Mississippi River ran backwards. The more reasonable explanation is that it ran sideways for awhile. Reelfoot Lake in northwest Tennessee was formed from this. If the river had actually run backwards Reelfoot Lake would probably stretch to the Cumberland Plateau
