I have been down it several times in the last 15 years and never saw
significant nudity but saw a number of obnoxious drunks. We generally have
a cooler in it's own tube and have a 2-4 beers in the few hours it takes to
drift through the trees. More fun that soaking in a hot tub.
Usually the tubes are tied together into a raft and whomever is towards the
front gives a quick (and sometimes surprised) call of "butts up" to warn
people about a rock near the surface.

This just sounds like a bunch of rich "got mine'ers" who don't want
their million dollar river view sullied by the riff raff that work for
them.
We don't have to travel far in our neighborhood to see the same thing,
it is just a six buck toll.

Heh, but we've got a new bridge to show for it, and I won't have to
wait for the lift span anymore. And *they* won't have to wait for me.

I've always like the European approach to alcohol. In many societies
it's common to serve beer to school kids, and entire families often
enjoy a drink together. The difference is that becoming publicly
intoxicated is a very serious screw up, and getting caught DWI will
typically result in very serious punishment even for "first
offenders".

In a lot of European countries the tradition of giving wine and beer
to kids at meals comes from the poor quality of their water supply.
