It's a great pity that we can't seem to harness the overflow but let most of it go out to sea. We are constantly being warned about saving water.fiftyoddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372578925298011630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6257034884908994204.post-60553013864865300492011-03-23T16:01:27.375-07:002011-03-23T16:01:27.375-07:00Water is certainly a precious commodity where we l...Water is certainly a precious commodity where we live -- in Florence, AZ, halfway between Phoenix and Tucson. We do everything we can to conserve water -- much more so than when we lived in L.A. Water shortages really are a concern. Thanks so much for this posting to remind us to conserve and use this scarce commodity wisely.Dr. Kathy McCoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02903015507894951725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6257034884908994204.post-47602158001324220272011-03-23T04:30:00.414-07:002011-03-23T04:30:00.414-07:00I've heard that the next world powers will be ...I've heard that the next world powers will be those nations that control the water.

This is the honest truth...our water bill is $26.97 (the absolute minimum you can pay)per month. $4.02 of that is actual water and sewerage usage the rest is taxes and fees. Fully 1/2 of the bill is to pay for rain water going into the storm sewer. (Does that mean God owes me $13 and change per month?) <br /><br />Now they want to raise the rates 10% because not enough people are using water in the entire Detroit metro area of 3+ million people to cover the cost of maintaining the system.<br /><br />We do not water grass, we do not use fresh water to flush the toilet but run gray laundry water to the tank to flush with and have constantly monitored every valve and repaired every drip seeing as here they charge you for each drop.the walking manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058913927297370740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6257034884908994204.post-89748189769140764912011-03-23T03:50:57.797-07:002011-03-23T03:50:57.797-07:00Wow, I sure envy you the beauty of your beaches.Wow, I sure envy you the beauty of your beaches.Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6257034884908994204.post-65927900514208767772011-03-22T14:35:43.664-07:002011-03-22T14:35:43.664-07:00Being a fat nation we could go quite a while with ...Being a fat nation we could go quite a while with out food-- water? 3 days.
