Wow, Amy. Loved this. My visit to the headwaters of the Mississippi two weekends ago and my many walks in St. Paul have given me a deep appreciation of the power of that mighty waterway. Living near the Lock and Dam, with its implications of control and danger has been sobering. Thank you for this fascinating guided tour through the history, geology, and culture associated with water. I hope you are writing a book.

Thank you, Amy, quite fascinating. There are examples - the acequias in New Mexico, for example - of irrigation governance without a hierarchical organization.
