I feel kinda bad for some of the newbies - they have no idea.
 
So we finally have state imposed water restrictions in CA

The March snowpack measurement came in at 0.9 inches of water content in the snow, just 5% of the March 3 historical average for the measurement site.
The overall water content for the Northern Sierra snowpack came in at 4.4 inches, just 16% of average for the date. Central and southern Sierra readings were 5.5 inches (20% of average) and 5 inches (22% of average) respectively.
Only once in recorded history has the water content of the snow been lower.
To replenish the water supply it would take all the water that runs over Niagra Falls for 170 days.

I just heard the news.... Something Simple... Sea World announced they are converting all thier toilets over to sea water. Its brilliant.. they bring in the water from Mission Bay and run it through a filter... Then its provided for the toilets throughout the park. San Diego process the sewage and the effluent is filtered and sent out back to the ocean. full circle.

Here in Santee we have two water sources... one is full on fresh water from reserviors.... the other is recycled water from the sewage. Its delivered in purple pipes and used to water all the public spaces. It would be nice to include that in the next housing development for flushing toilets and watering gardens. Its 99 percent pure. Actually as drinkable as unfiltered lake water. There are plans to work it back into the fresh water supply at some sort of percentage...

If we can as a society get over the thought of Toilet to Tap concept. Id drink it.
