The Yellow River*

So, in China, there's a river called the 黃河, or in English we call it the Yellow River.  Although this picture from Wikipedia it looks more green.



Anyway, let's examine one of the dams in the Yellow River.  There is currently a leak in this particular dam where several days ago, little droplets would come through (I can't stop spelling 'through' as 'throguh'), and now for a couple seconds teeny streams are flowing through.  Like the sprayer on your sink on really low pressure.  I only imagine the leak will get bigger over the next few days, until it maxes out or some external force stops it.

* Yes, this is a metaphor.  If you have no idea to what it is referring, go read some back story :)
