Marsh Creek Lake

Marsh Creek Lake is a man-made lake that resulted from the construction of a dam across Marsh Creek, filling a valley that prompted the relocation of residents from Milford Mills, Pennsylvania to higher ground. The reasons for creating the lake were "... frequent flooding, water shortages and lack of recreational opportunities for nearby population centers...."[1]

gollark: > The Internet Computer is a decentralized cloud computing platform that will host secure software and a new breed of open internet services. It uses a strong cryptographic consensus protocol to safely replicate computations over a peer-to-peer network of (potentially untrusted) compute nodes, possibly overlayed with many virtual subnetworks (sometimes called shards). Wasm’s advantageous properties made it an obvious choice for representing programs running on this platform. We also liked the idea of not limiting developers to just one dedicated platform language, but making it potentially open to “all of ’em.”How is *that* meant to work?
gollark: ... "internet computer"? Oh bees.

gollark: Hmm, maybe just hook MDN pages up to a text to speech system and stick some javascripty backgrounds on.
gollark: Provide a link to the RPNCalc RPNSource then?
