We could do a bucket-brigade with illegal aliens, eh?
20 million should do it, and got more coming.

Hi Chuck;
At first look, this sounds reasonable but, I can't begin to imagine the
cost. That plus the amount of energy to transport fuel through a pipeline is
relatively small in relationship to the amount of energy in the fuel. I can't
imagine the same applies for water. you would probably use more energy to
transpot the water to hydroelectric dams then you could generate. So the
energy to do this would probably make it cost prohibitive let alone the cost to
build all the pipelines required.

Tony: (Everybody) I watch a TV show called "Inspector
America" and this guy was a former bridge inspector etc and he goes all over
the country, inspecting the countries infrastructure, including the water
situations like floods, draughts etc. And last week's program talked about this
very thing. They built the Hoover dam in 1931 I think it was, and created Lake
Mead, which gives most of the South West, including Los Angeles, Las Vegas etc,
it's water supply for 90% of their water. Yet, since 1999 (partly because of
population explosions in the area, and partly cause of draughts) the water
level in Lake Mead had DROPPED get this 130 FEET. And it's still dropping. And
he had this water dept big wig woman talking about the problem and they were
talking about how we have well over 600 MILES of the Alaskan oil pipeline, and
THOUSANDS of miles of Natural gas lines running from Texas all over the US. So,
they were saying "why don't we built water lines, to take water from where
there is too much (like where you are, and all through the mid west) and pipe
it over and into Lake Mead etc, to where there is a shortage of water?? Makes
sense to me. Ppl say "well, that cost too much". But look at what the cost to
this country will be when probably 20-50 MILLION ppl who rely on water (and
electrical power cause of the huge turbines that run there) from Lake Mead and
other lakes in that part of the country, are suddenly out of water, and they
all move "back east". What a mess we'd have on our hands, and we'd better fix
the problem while we can, and I think the idea of "diverting water from flooded
area, to those in draught areas" makes perfect sense. Then, later, if Lake mead
ever flooded, and the Midwest was in a draught, the water could just be
reversed. Chuck

Well it looks like trout fishing in Arkansas is
going to be sad this year again, to much water.
But, I do have a 12 day trip planned for Eagle
Nest, NM in August, any suggestion are welcome
as to water, flies, or technique.
