Actually I believe in not wasting water. This will soon be a resource that will be more expensive than oil.

Kathgilliam's $300 will be a drop in the bucket, especially in the southern US a few years from now. We are depleting Mother Nature's MOST valuable resource, NOT oil at a rate that is mind-boggling. Trouble is we think it just comes out of a tap.

In parts of Arizona, drinking water has to be trucked in by homeowners, because they cannot afford the $2 million it would cost to drill a well. Lake Mead is 74 feet below normal. It has to feed close to seven states and Mexico.

So please think about this the next time you have to drain water from your pool. A time may soon come when you may not be allowed to fill it.
