A LOT of the water California uses is to grow crops, i.e. FOOD for your tables.

Right. In the desert. Supply enough water and you can grow just about anything in the desert.

Um, no. California's Central Valley is NOT considered part of the desert that MUCH od SoCal is.

We may have more desert up here than we have now if this keeps up. They just announced the lake is at its lowest level for this time of year since 1972. And the price of house boats has gone up, and the price of gas at the marinas they wouldn't even give. I really don't see the tourist trade as bailing us out this year as reservations are way down already.

A properly built cistern is sealed....no mosquitos. Only health problems would be if the filter system failed.. Odd that KA has banned them.....well, maybe not so odd seeing as how its kalifornia! 
It just seems to make sense that most water should be used twice before treatment....brush your teeth, cook food, ice from 'first' series, water the lawn, wash the cars from the second. Oh well. If somebody actually started building a cistern they would probably irritate the ground worms...and we can't have that!

Maybe we can run out of water and gasoline at the same time!
Everything comes down to costs. As costs rise, enterprising humans will invent/discover alternates. But it is best if we conserve our natural resources.
Death is Mother Natures way of telling us to slow down ... this applies to the Earth and its inhabitants.
