Geez, there is no reason to assume that it's copyrighted. It's off of a government website without copyright notice and credit was given to the author. It looks like a press release for Robert P. Wolensky's book. At any rate, I wrote Bob Wolensky for explicit wikipedia permission. Waiting for a reply. In the mean time I going to reconsider advocating wiki*.org. It's a little to anal retentive around here. [2] Buster 23:05, Jun 14, 2004 (UTC)

My father, Robert Millard was train master for the Pennsylvania Rail Road and was responsible for shoving many coal cars full of straw into the whirl pool trying to stop the flow, but all efforts failed untill a coffer dam was built. As I remember it was weeks of dumping coal cars into the hole. 2600:387:C:6B36:0:0:0:8 ( talk) 21:00, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
