[edit] Che Guevara

I don't know where Che's camp was but unless it was on the shores of the lake and utilised the lake in some way, its inclusion in this article doesn't seem justified.Rexparry sydney 08:42, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] References?

Should it be mentioned somewhere that this lake was used as a setting for one of the Doctor Dolittle series (by Hugh Lofting)? I don't remember which one it was (not Voyages of Doctor Dolittle) but the lake played a major role in the Biblical flood as described by Lofting. Interesting piece of trivia, not sure if it's relevant enough to be put in an article. Cinnamingirl (talk) 06:42, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
