The "civil servant" being the lock tender. Sure jaxie, there's no
reason why he would know.


nope, according to the CG and Corps of Engineers.

This is an outright lie. There is no mention of the facility on either
of their web sites. The Corps of Engineers did not build the facility,
not do they manage it.

On the other hand, the Coast Pilot describes the locks and gates in
detail. And NOAA describes the current flow in their tide tables.

So who do you believe, the "professionals" that jaxie claims told him
about this, of the ones that publish the data?




take your choice. Idiots on one side, professionals on the other.

Been there. It's a lock.
