Such a smart man. It is a disaster that is coming and pols are too stupid to fix it. Solutions such as pipes from Oregan to Lake Shasta. Mississippi West, pipes from Alaska and even paying for water from Canada via PES and sea water extraction are all laid out and don't need much money. I think it is already too late as these take a lot of time to get going so we shall see.

Pols don't solve problems, they cause them.

Indeed.

About 30 years ago, my sister in California was fined $700.00 for using too much water in one month.... because of another drought. And she was living just two blocks from the ocean on 17 mile drive in Pebble Beach at the time. :baby:

Meanwhile,.... all the cable cooking shows rave about using sea salt for cooking.

Talk about starving with a loaf of bread under your arm,.... :baby:

Piping water from anywhere else unless they are in flood stages will affect the water it comes from with the amount it would take. I cant imagine the cost of doing so, ready or not. Unsure they could ever move enough without having college kids work off the 10k they are getting... Their just going to have to wait for rain or move, sorry. I'd feel the same way if it were here and it were me.
