Question for the day

[MAXFACTOR]

dairyQUEEN.... i think its impossible for the river to actually flow uphill regardless of the winds conditions.  The only reason you are going "upriver" is because you are getting a blowing j.

You are more or less effectively less resistant then the water.  Water molecules are tighter bound then your kiak or kick boat then the water is to each other water molecule.  Thus,  it is easier to blow the surface object then the mass of the water.    ie"  when ocean diving,  the lower you go  often the less the current affects you as opposed to being closer to the surface. 

REST ASSURED,   the river is flowing to the lowest point and is only slightly slowed by wind conditions which are blowing from the opposite directions of the water flow.  However, if the wind is blowing in the direction of the flow, it will speed it up slightly.    HAVE A DAIRY QUEEN  DAY.

Additionally, a river can flow right through a lake, and at that time the body of water is called a lake, however, when the flow continues beyond the boundaries of the lake it becomes a river again.  It reminds me of the book  A RIVER FLOWS, by I.P. Daily
