Even though I find the jabs at each other some what amusing, this really is a serious issue that affects everyone, so you should really leave the clever insults out of the discussion!!!!(even though they are funny) I think a common sense approach should be taken on how to fairly distribute the water. We all agree that farming uses the most percentage of the water. So let's start there, it shouldn't be very hard to figure out what the most water using crops are. See if there is another crop that will still be profitable for the farmers, but still save a lot of water and give them enough water for those crops!!! For us city dwellers the only thing we have to negotiate with is our lawns!!!! There is many things we can do about that, but I don't think I need to list them, but I could if requested!!!!! lol
