Whew! That was close! We were almost in for a versy serious water shortage this summer.
Good thing we have innovative public officials who could come up with an efficient solution to resolve the problem quickly.
the solution: They simply lowered the red line again, so now there is no problem, because we have not hit the red line. Really. I am not kidding.
Just like our defense situation. Some people might think we have it bad. But no, we just decide that firing rockets at us is not such a big deal, so therefore, we're not at war with anyone. It’s very convenient.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, that means that this year will probably have the depressing distinction of having reached the red line twice...
ReplyDeleteI propose we _raise_ the red line. Sure, it won't help for this year, but if we raise it high enough, then we'll never hit it again...
hey, Mike. Welcome back!
ReplyDeleteZevy - good analogy.
Mike - good solution. very in tune with the methods of problem solving our government uses.
