the sign in the second one makes the weir sound like an amusement park thrill ride.

Submerged Weir? Mike Weir? golfing? what?

Ah good times.

Susannah: Reminds me of a Keith Haring tag.

an amusement park thrill ride of death! i continue to laugh at how very blunt this sign is. and i love the fact they call it the drowning machine...

the graphic makes it look like a puzzle you might be tempted to try and solve, or a relationship problem you might like to bring to terminal completion...

all low head dams are called "drowning machines" because you cannot escape them and they are the perfect "machine" for killing people. That one looks particularly nasty.

Any one know where to find the video of the swiftwater training excersize that went bad. Fire and E.M.S. personell were killed during a drill that they were conducting at a low head dam location. any help would be appreciated. thank you
