@mym@toot.cat All the time. I live in a drainage basin abutting an international waterway (Detroit).
My mentor in the wine biz had a pet theory that wine regions should be demarcated not by political boundaries but by riversheds. It works pretty well in Western Europe (the Loire, Rhone, Mosel/Moselle, etc). In North America wines from MI, NY, ON, and QC have more similarities than not: they're all products of the Great Lakes watershed.

@mym@toot.cat @liferstate@mas.to Back in the 1970’s, Peter Warshall made a good argument in the CoEvolution Quarterly that political boundaries should be determined by watersheds.
