Dam it

Appropos Dave's recent post on the Three Gorges Dam, and courtesy the generosity of the British taxpayer, the BBC has an excellent photo-essay of the Three Gorges Dam. I can only echo Dave's sentiments - they might have moved 1.3 million people, flooded arceological wonders and more but it's quite an achievement.
