Well, just hope the surrounding communities don't need that water.

We get our well water from an aquifer. Plenty to go around I would imagine...I hope.

Hope in vain. Just 30 years ago everyone in the San Antonio, Texas area thought the Edwards Aquifer, one of the largest in the nation, had plenty to go around. After all, it was a monster of an aquifer, right?

Today, there are real concerns that the aquifer is not going to survive the population pressure without some strict rationing on usage. Extremities of the aquifer have already collapsed. And once they collapse, those areas cannot ever be recharged again.

All this will affect you, it just might take a little longer, is all. Run as fast as you can...you'll just die tired.
