The local well-driller around here is trying to make ends meet by servicing wells which are going dry because of the lack of rain. In the 1940s yearly flooding was the rule in this still rural area. Even just ten years ago, circa 1995, I had to mow around my ranch house eight to ten times to keep unwanted volunteer vegetation manageable. This year I mowed twice. General Electric keeps edging ever closer to bringing itself into the water desalinization business. Of course this will be a boone to someone, but in the current political climate, I doubt it will be beneficial to either mother nature or we the people. Corporations plan upon using water shortages to gouge the public, no doubt, for everything they can squeeze.
