i dont think you can right now with the dam construction

6/2/2006 12:00:51 PM

im pretty sure they still allow traffic around the dam site
might be worth it to see everything now before it is under a few hundred feet of water

6/2/2006 12:05:03 PM

yeah, i need to get out there asap. how high have they raised the level so far?

6/2/2006 1:22:24 PM

who's down for a trip? early june maybe?

6/2/2006 2:30:27 PM

it is going to be the worst disaster ever when that damn collapses

6/2/2006 2:42:42 PM

i do hope the engineers were not chinese

6/2/2006 3:06:07 PM

the dam will not collapse.

the second law of thermodynamics disagrees

Uh, too late. It's already risen hundreds of feet.

I'm going to China next month some time, and I would like to see what the Three Gorges still has to offer.

Throw some info my way.

Oh shit, I thought this had something to do with Tom Cruise. Like, maybe that's what he named his kid or something.

the information mckoonts sent me doesn't date the photographs so lord knows if all that stuff is underwater already...

I don't think you can right now with all of that damn construction.


I'll be your dam tour guide, if you have any dam questions feel free to ask.

6/2/2006 10:23:41 PM

I was getting the feeling from reading the sites that the construction was done.

Have any good web sources I can look at?

the second law of thermodynamics deals with entropy and thermodynamics, not dam collapsability.

Where can I get some damn bait?!

the universe tends towards disorder

dams too

you don't say

i had a county inspector try to tell me how the 2nd law of thermodynamics disproved evolution

i told him about the internet

6/3/2006 6:24:54 PM

i guess you people will try to tell me next about the classic analogy how dorm rooms get messy and that's proof of the 2nd law of thermodynamics...

6/3/2006 6:27:45 PM

actually that is better described by newton's first law of motion

college bum at rest stays at rest...

I'm starting to think I should get a travel agent to compile this mess for me. I think I'm gonna screw it up.
