Allegheny River: micturate in NY it flows past New Orleans

I recall the "Allegheny Airlines" that used to service Albany, Rochester, Buffalo Washington, D.C., (when the crosswinds in Albany came) and MacArthur Airport on Long Island, NY and used to fly on them on occasion 2 hrs 10 minutes from Long Island to Buffalo, NY. They became renamed, and a joke about them used to be "Agony Airlines". Anyway the Allegheny River is a sometimes overlooked part of the state (I did work on some geoarchaeology near there for the Millennium Pipeline project before the Millennium, and wish current archaeology efforts the best, gas will flow from Canada to Cleveland, Ohio to Mount Vernon, NY and places in between someday through it) and just saw this publication western New Yorkers and others might be interested in about the 320 mile long river. "Originating in Potter County, the Allegheny River spans about 320 miles, flowing northwest through New York's southern panel and descending through western Pennsylvania. Proceeding south the river then joins the Monongahela in Pittsburgh to form the Ohio River. Charles E. Williams, a professor of ecology at Clarion University, recently published his first pictorial book in conjunction with the Postcard History Series by Arcadia Publishing (publishers of local and regional history in the United States). The book, "Along the Allegheny River: The Northern Watershed," includes pictures of more than 200 vintage postcards. The images showcase years of history from the river, its landscape and its people, including the timber and oil booms of the late 1800s and early 1900s." http://www.thederrick.com/stories/06152006-4010.shtml
