It'd been one thing to have had the drought in the area 1000 yr ago when
it wasn't populated; it's something else again now that it has been so
thoroughly pumped out of ground reservoirs to boot...

If only the know-it-alls would have added to the water storage, which has
not been increased over a period of time the population has doubled or
tripled. No matter how many times they have been told . . .

Only would be successful in delaying the inevitable; their current water
usage patterns aren't sustainable in that they're outstripping
groundwater reservoir longterm regeneration rates...without significant
changes in usage efficiencies and patterns it's only a matter of time...
