Why is it blamed on well water and shallow pipes, if I get the drift
on this report?

"Cold" water cruises in the 80s in SW Florida all summer. Where is the
surprise?
Vegas is a lot hotter than here.

What gets me is that they think a new house will be beter than an old
house. A lot of people just assume new is better.

Back in Brooklyn, I fixed things for money, and I was at a girl's dorm
room and she was complaining about the picture on her 12" tv. I said
that you live in a steel frame building, get a wire and connect it to
the antenna screws (and I showed her where they were) and put the other
end out the window. I came back a week later, and she'd bought
another tv, which worked no better. I told her again to get a wire for
a better antenna, and she gave me the old tv.

Is it true the only picture she got was that of her own dorm room?
