Thanks, Judy, for posting the link to those videos. It was briefly shown on tv while I was staying in Natchez, but more coverage was being given to the demise of Bin Laden than the flooding river!

A minister in the area told me that he'd heard boats with armed officers accompanied the towboat with the explosives experts, as they feared shots might be fired upon them!
