I thought I'd posted this before, but apparently not. It's obvious folks! The Willamette is the 3rd longest river in the world (following the Nile and Volga) in the class of all rivers whose name (i) begins with a letter in the second half of the alphabet, (ii) ends with a vowel, and (iii) has L as the third letter. :biggrin:

The St.Lawrence River doesn't count? Pronounced stlah rentx, right? (I'm never sure how to pronounce a period in a word)

Or maybe the Vilyuy (sometimes, at least).

Or, if neither of those qualify, then the Volta.

Then the Yellowstone.

Never heard of the Vilyuy...so it doesn't count. :biggrin: Saint Lawrence is out for obvious reasons. Volta is no longer the name of the river - it's been changed to Lower Burkina Faso. And as for Yellowstone... hmmm... can't think of a damn thing... guess I lose! :frown:

:rolleyes: Yeah, that's a much better name. Easy to remember and say and fit in tiny print on a map.
