The weirdos with the "END OF DAYS" signs are going to be parading around if this keeps on.
For once it was gorgeous in Norcal while Socal was drowning.

Could have been 55/56. I was just reminiscing with another East Bay raised Brat (CharkBait) about the Pleasant Hill flood that year. San Diego has now exceeded their all time record for total rain (150 years anyway) and the season ain't over. I heard Death Valley has had more rain than Seattle this year.
Catman, if you insist on a permanent climate swap, we reserve the right to throw in Hollywood and the earthquakes as well. _________________ Mary & Don Anderson

With all the rain in Southern California, maybe you guys down there could build another pipe northward, this time all the way to the Columbia River and beyond. But make sure it goes both ways, depending on the yearly differences. Be sure to bypass Northern California, leave our water alone! Going through Nevada would be nice. You can probably sell them some too. California Water Politics, 2005. Pardon my Siphon, Sir! _________________ Sea Wolf, C-Brat #31

Nope, skip Nevada, thanks -- we have all the rain over here we can handle. More than twice the annual rainfall already, here in Nelson. We have waterfalls in the desert and shorebirds wandering the washes. _________________ El and Bill (former live-aboards)
