Should add information about the Naval Air Station located there. Has been the home of many Naval test pilots.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 00:49, 23 April 2005 ( talk • contribs) Pcdolinger

Can anybody confirm that the Patuxent River is the deepest river in the world? Pauldarbyiii 13:12, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
By the way, Stbalbach, not that I really care much, but I noticed that twice you were motivated to make a single change of that one paragraph about the economic development brought by rec. boating and by the Naval Station out of history and into "environment", which seems out of place to me. How about we leave it under history?...it provides a much more relevant "modern history" details than just leaving the current history with the building of the reservoirs (half a century or so ago.)

This user, cited previously for "disruptive edits" has twice deleted, without comment other than "the references are not authoritative (!), references by:
1) Penn State University, documenting the Patuxent extent of John Smith's second 1608 voyage
2) An article on the National Park Service Bay Gateways site by the premier Chesapeake Kent Mountford (see his 100+ academic articles at the www.bayjournal.com site) who says that the Patuxent was first seen by westerner in 1588 by Spaniard Vicente Gonzalez
3) An historic chronology of Mid-Atlantic waterways posted by the US Army Corps of Engineers
and apparently does not agree with the status of Bernie Fowler as the premier Patuxent River environmentalist over the past four decades despite affirmations to that fact by several Md. governors of both parties and by his WP page.
I have replaced the references. Further deletions will be reported to an administrator. DLinth (user link above) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.142.130.18 ( talk) 01:24, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
I'm not sure what this sentence is supposed to explain. (So there's nothing "obvious" about it.)
If no one rewrites and cites it, it should probably be deleted.
Actually, that entire last paragraph would benefit from a rewrite. Perhaps one sentence discussing the air station, another boating and tourism.

my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}}
