9. Objects / E. Objects over Time / 8. Continuity of Rivers

21632	A river is not just event; it needs actual and counterfactual boundaries [Williamson]
	Full Idea: A river is not just an event. One would need to specify counterfactual as well as actual boundaries.
	From: Timothy Williamson (Vagueness [1994], 9.3)
	A reaction: In other words the same river can change its course a bit, but it can't head off in the opposite direction.
