Worlds shortest rivers

The ongoing dispute over whether the Roe River or the D River is the world's shortest according to Guinness World Records seems easily resolved. I looked in a 1973 edition of the book, but the rivers section has no shortest or smallest sections—presumably these were added sometime since. Perhaps someone has a newer edition handy?

I also poked around on the website, but couldn't find any entry. There are a few tease entries there, but selling a copy of the book is a major purpose for the website. Lacking that, the wikipedia entry for Guinness World Records claims they are a tie: Perhaps that was Randall's reason for adding it? EncMstr 02:04, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

shortest river

The "Oregon" page claims a tie, while both the "D River" and "Roe River" pages state that the Roe River is shorter. However, the "D River" page says that the D River is only 121 feet long, while the "Roe River" page says that the Roe River is 201 feet long. Which one is actually right?
