1 " Early one seasonably cold morning, the first day of November, in the year of our lord 1952...the Cuyahoga River caught fire.The river burned.It wasn't so much the river, but a huge oil slick *on* the river, though distinguishing one from the other was more a job for a chemist than a lay observer.
