A good read, for sure. Texas and Oklahoma are STILL arguing over where that damn river is at...

the last paragraph:

< Clearly, when you let able professionals handle complex problems and offer science-based solutions to well-informed politicians, anything is possible, even in 21st-century America.

I would have probably added something like:

< Clearly, when you let able professionals (instead of junk-yard dog attorneys)handle complex problems and offer science-based solutions to well-informed politicians, anything is possible, even in 21st-century America.

NPR had a nice report on the process as well.

As usually happens the headline is totally misleading. There was no colonial era error and the states are not at odds. The entire process has been quite civil and interesting to follow.
