Something's fishy here.

Georgia water emergency.

It's not just happening in Georgia. We're seeing droughts all across the US, from Florida to San Diego. It's likely they will not get better, as weather patterns change, cities grow, people eat more and more and put in things like bigger lawns and artificial ponds. Some things you can do:

-Fix leaks! #1 water waster.
-Go to xeriscaped yards that can survive on the rainfall you get.
-Go to low flow showerheads and more efficient toilets.
-Put in a graywater system and irrigate with that water (works best on citrus and roses.)
-If you do retain any grass, go to a lower water usage variety.
-Push for water recycling in your area.
-If you live near the coast, push for desalination plants (especially near powerplants, where they can use the waste heat.)
-Cover pools/spas when not used.
-Don't wash your car in your driveway; commercial car washes in many states recycle most of the water they use.

You are such a denier.

I blame man made global warming.

I blame President Bush. He, along with Dr. Evil, is secretly draining the water from Lake Lanier to help cool their nuclear reactor for future nation building missions and takeovers.

The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.

A hurricane or two will fix it.

No doubt, his pals in the oil water industry are getting rich, while those suburbanites watch their well financed lawns turn brown and die.

Oh, the humanity!!!!

The devil is in the details.

Praise Google!

I'm certainly not going to do the work for you. It's a miracle I even started a thread here.
