<urbex> neat....Niagara Falls is ~12,000 years old
<dopey> what was there 12,001 years ago?
<Bunsen> The interesting thing about Niagara Falls is the way it's been eating its way up the river over those tens of thousands of years.
<Bunsen> When it gets back to Lake Erie, it'll pretty much drain the lake and reduce it to the Erie River.
<niteshad> Bunsen: that'll suck for all those ports along Lake Erie, like Cleveland.
<dopey> niteshad: Not at all. It just means that cleveland can expand north like it has longed to do for ~12,000 years.
<Bunsen> niteshad: If we're not shipping goods in fusion-powered spacecraft by the time it happens, then we suck as a species and deserve the fate of having to build more Cleveland.
