[edit] Size

I believe the Eastern Indigo Snake (Drymarchon corais couperi) is the longest recorded species of snake in North America. The Eastern diamondback is indeed the longest venomous snake, however.MFuture 20:08, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

You are correct! The Indigo snake is the longest snake in North America however, it is NOT venomous! Most of the the article seems fairly accurate however... enough venom to kill 400 humans? toddg

I never said the Indigo was venomous. I was correcting the article at the time, which stated the Diamondback was the "largest snake in North America". I have since edited the article.MFuture 21:29, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
