I guess Seattle doesn't have any crime, or potholes or traffic problems, since they have the time for this kind of thing. But someone please tell me: Is Seattle short on WATER? I just don't believe it.
Believe it or not, EVERY year I have ever lived in this area, we are told we are having a DROUGHT. We are made to feel bad for watering our lawns, washing our cars, etc... In the meantime, if I take a trip to visit in-laws in Arizona, they are using water like crazy to fill their pools, artificial lakes, water their golf courses, etc...
Remember, Seattle is the same city where they are going to stop picking up your trash if the garbage man sees that you threw out recyclables. It is crazy.
Actually, yes. Due to gross mismanagement by environmental nutjobs, Seattle doesn't have an adequate water supply and distribution network. Rationing during the three summer months, when there isn't any rain, is common.
Great point since they get roughly 40" of rainfall per year!
