The Central Americans get around it by calling the stream the rio del Norte.
Also - Haven't seen it, but I believe that the Colorado dries up before hitting Mexico, so much of it do we consume. (so much for lower riparian rights. I guess that doesn't apply to brown people.)

You oughta head up towards Creede, Colorado at the headwaters of the Rio Grande... it's barely a trickle.
Most of what is labelled a "river" in these parts would hardly pass for a creek back east.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
