It won't be long before people start siphoning water off of neighbors. I have heard of electricity before, but now with the rules they proposing, I can see it.....
hey, where's this hose going to off the back of my home?

I was watch a show about "water" the other night, and they had a discussion about the feasibility of a big water pipeline from the Imperial Valley section of CA to the Great Lakes!
I'm lucky. The town I live in has NEVER had a water ban.

WARREN! SHHHHH! don't let CA know. Don't even hint of it. The consensus will decide that the public would be better served by sucking Washington dry.
Imperial Valley and the "All-American canal"..... I find that name offensive as it's implementation edifies what most foreigners think of 'Americans.'
It wouldn't surprise me at all to find out they build something like that. Look at the Alaskan pipeline.... It would be a cakewalk compared to that. I have to ask... what was the answer to the feasibility of that pipeline?

I saw that show also and wondered what they will do when they drain the lakes. I just don't see that happening as I am sure it would offend some dam illegal for some reason.
Why can't they build desalinization plants down along the coast? That is all the fresh water places like Saudi Arabia have, so it isn't like they don't know how to do it. We have just had to much for to little for to long and no one wants to spend any money for anything but to appease all the immigrants pouring into the country.

They considered the pipeline as a "fall-back position" if they ever dry up the Colorado river.  A lot of other possibilities were discussed. As you know, nothing is impossible. It just takes more time and money!

And the audacity that CA-ians think they are more worthy than anyone else on the planet.
The wonderful Imperial Valley gave us the Salton Sea, and the subsequent management thereof..... Brilliance... Just brilliant 
I can only imagine what the powers at be would do with the great lakes at their disposal.
idiots.

Warren,
They had a show on the history channel the other night about the Colorado River. With both Arizona and Nevada getting low on water, they may shut off what comes to Los Angles if it gets to short over there. They also said that the Phoenix Airport has sank 10' into the ground as they have pumped so much of the ground water out that it is starting to cave in where the water was and they just keep building and putting more and more people and weight there and using more water. In fact the final analysis was that the next world war could very well be over water and food. If you get a chance to see the show Mega Disasters that showed what they expect to happen if this drought doesn't break, watch it. Very interesting and somewhat frightening too.

Now I understand why the hardware store can't keep any garden hoses in stock.
