Sorta makes a boy nostalgic for the good old days (say, circa 1969 or thereabouts) when he could just walk across......at any time of year. Wolfgang Of course if TBone's scheme could be made to work, you could walk across again, as all the water would be in Colorado, Utah, Arizona, etc. where it would obviously have more value than where it is now. And think of all the additional arable land that would become available, not just in the former desert areas, but in the newly exposed lake beds. (and just in case there is someone out there that needs this) 8) Bob Weinberger T-Bone would like the NAWAPA. It's not completely dead. http://www.schillerinstitute.org/eco...s2.html#nawapa Thus demonstrating once again that there is no idea so stupid that it cannot garner widespread support. The American west doesn't need MORE water. What it needs is a few tens of millions LESS human parasites. Wolfgang Or at least tens of millions of humans who are willing to live in the desert and accept that that is what it is. No green lawns. No green golf courses (and thats what this is all about isn't it). No open irrigation ditches. No ****ing "Dancing Waters" at the casino. Drink recycled waste water (not a big Chamber of Commerce selling point, I know). If you want to live a wet lifestyle, move somewhere where its wet. g.c. |
