Seventy One

[edit]
  • ... that 71 is 3 miles (4.8 km) long?
  • ALT1:... that 71 is a stream in Pennsylvania?
  • ALT2:... that 71 discharges 1.26 million gallons per day?
  • ALT3:If you'd rather have the name spelled out, that can be done, but I think the number is a bit hookier.
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/George A. Zentmyer
  • Comment: I made this article specifically for April Fools. Who knows why it has such an odd name? Pretty much any statement about the stream sounds hooky.
