It WOULD be a HUGE financial undertaking, but an East/West canal could be built to alleviate all the "flood-stage" rivers back East, and pump it to the water-starved West. With a natural bed, it could even help to replenish the Ogallala Aquifier, which is under the eastern edge of the Rockies, running thru eight states, from west Texas to South Dakota.

We don't want a bigger government; We want a government that does a few BIG things, and does them right.

If you think that you can cut it, if you think you got the time, they'll only give you one chance, better get it right first time. 'Cause in this game you're playin, if you lose you got to pay. And if you make just ONE wrong move, you'll get BLOWN AWAY!
