No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful. -
Do they (in california) still waste lots of water by using lawn sprinklers on a wide scale, just so their own grass on their front yard is as green and lush as that of the neighbor?Tamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death. I arrive on winds of blessed air. Air that you no longer deserve."

Out here, from what I understand, some homeowners qualify for some kind of rebate up to a certain amount, if they replaced their grass lawn yards with drought resistant plants, thus requiring less water usage for yard maintenance. IIRC from what one of my friends mentioned to me, sometime ago.Originally posted by Proteus_MST View PostA lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.Comment

California is split into many water regions. Marin County's reservoirs are full. The Central Valley reservoirs are almost empty. Santa Barbara is taking their desalinization plant out of mothballs. I think Los Angeles and San Diego will be drinking large amounts of desalinated water within 5 years.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

I mean come on. The price of water will go up until it is profitable to supply water in other ways, and some of the farming will move to places that are more arable. You know, the same way this has worked for thousands of years?If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

Perhaps, with regards to agriculture it may be a good idea to look at Israel ... they seem to be very efficient with using modern agriicultural tchniques to have green fields in desert terrain ... amongst others by the use of Drip irrigationTamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death.

I really cant see how privatizing/commoditizing a basic utility in California could possibly go wrong. You naysayers are all enroneous in your distrust of the invisible hand over basic necessities.
