It can't be both 688 ft and "half a mile" long. the two figures don't agree.

Since the primary source says 688ft, its plainly not half a mile, which is 2640 feet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.119.42.222 (talk) 06:35, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing out the discrepancy. I just corrected the mistake.--El Mayimbe (talk) 20:48, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

@El Mayimbe Incredibly, nobody has pointed out that in the introductory paragraphs, only 2 dimensions are stated. Furthermore, there is no indication of which dimensions these are. Rogerathauxton (talk) 19:12, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
