		Webmaster notes: The bridge across the mouth of Cane Creek was still in decent shape as late as the early 1960s, and could be crossed by automobile at that time, although there was no where to go on the east side of the bridge except to turn around and go back across the same bridge.
		The bridge was built by the Tennessee Power Co. On January 1, 1925, a clear cold morning, 2 barges were pushed up the river, anchored under the bridge and the steel work was lowered on to the barges.

	Albert Collins' bridge tone - which pup? - Telecaster Guitar Forum
		Albert used his bridge pup and sometimes the middle position, had the treble all the way up along with the volume, bass (I think) on 4, and reverb on 4.
		Also I think playing with the bridge cover on may be part of the tone.

	Geotimes - May 2005 - Meteor Crater’s slow impact
		The idea of a swarm of meteorites forming the crater had been floated by other researchers in the past, says Bevan French of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. But their ideas “never went far enough” to answer the questions, he says.
		Last summer, Melosh, of the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona in Tucson, and Collins, of Imperial College in London, were “playing with” their public-friendly Web site model of what happens when extraterrestrial objects hit Earth, when they decided to plug in the information they thought they knew about Meteor Crater.
		According to Melosh and Collins’ model, at about 14 kilometers above Earth, the atmospheric pressure caused the meteor to shatter into pieces, which spread out to about 100 meters in diameter.
