Well, that was pretty good, goat.
I was wondering when they would blame people and eating meat... but as they clearly said, the "use it or loose it" rule for agricultural water allocation is probably the dumbest idea. Nice they had a positive spin at the end... There is hope for the delta.
Thank you for sharing this.

Here is another solution... actually two (yes, this is a funny):

How often can we thank Goat and David on the same issue?

Will wonders never cease to amaze?

Thanks for that all too fleeting moment of agreement, such as it is.

Peace, sharing a love of Baja, and fish tacos and so much more, to all Nomads.

Now don't go and spoil a good thing, Harald!
Just sit back, drink a Pacifico and don't be too upset tomorrow.

Colorado River and the Salton Sea


As an adjunct to Goat's Colorado River story, and also involving Baja is a pretty good story of the Salton Sea - toward the end of the story Baja is brought back into the story.

It is a lengthy production but if you have the time, it's interesting and educational.
