Subject: [env-trinity] The Control of Nature: Atchafalaya : The New Yorker<BR>
<BR>
Even though this isn't about the Trinity River, this is a fascinating read about what's going on with the Mississippi River. It's a chapter from John McPhee's book The Control of Nature about Atchafalaya (but how does one pronounce the word?).<BR>
