Good point. Don’t need an oil pipeline, but we ABSOLUTELY need a water pipeline to take the water from greedy Oregonian and Washingtonians to send to the people in LA who need it more than we do.

Anybody who thinks that isn’t the goal isn’t paying attention. That’s happening already (has been for 20 years) in the Seattle area. Their water supply infrastructure can’t handle KingCo’s growth. They want to tie Snohomish County’s (Everett, WA’s) water supply system with theirs and the Tolt system.

Everett’s system was built to support the 11 lumber mills the city used to have. They have their own hydroelectric dam, generate their own power, but can’t attract new companies to settle there. Totally run by the unions (80 percent union membership in the area). That means that 80 percent of the people with jobs either belong to a union, or are controlled by a company controlled by a union.

My daughter is an enviro-whacko lawyer in Portland who takes on these types of cases and prevails. She can tie it up in courts for decades.

Last one she did was some sort of saving of the cormorant birds on the Columbia the US Fish & Game was going to kill off with snipers. She's good at what she does.

No FN way our water goes to California.

A lot of people around here are whining and moaning about the drought, but I think it’s great! Show people what it’s loke to live without water (or with a great deal less) and see what they say then.

PS: I’m at Lake Tapps, which got hijacked for Cascadia water supply... well, we’ll see about it, hey!
