"Since 1877 Los Angeles has averaged 14.98. But I wont mention those tidbits either."
Yeah, sounds like Greece. Have you ever been to Greece? If you had, you would know that Greece gets more than 14.98 inches of rain per year. You defeat your own arguments. Keep trying to dispute the plain old facts and twist what I said. I originally said a large majority of California is a desert. That is not meant to mean exactly more than 50% is "classified as a desert". You are the type of person that just likes to argue. My original argument that you seem intent on disputing is that a large majority of California is a desert and they are always going to have water problems there. It has nothing to do with man made climate change as Moonbeam would probably tell you.
As for Pendleton and vegetation? Yeah, if you had been there (or perhaps you have and are just trying to twist the point), then you would know that the vegetation you talk of is just a bunch of scrub brush that is found in a lot of desert areas. If it was lush vegetation and not dry scrub brush then it would not provide fuel for the fires.

I don’t like to argue. I do like facts. Athens is not Greece. Los Angeles is not California. Scrub brush does not mean desert. More than 50%= a majority.
I live here. Sorry but more than half of California is not a desert . That is simply a fact. If you look at population, where the water is actually used, it’s not even close.
