ParticipantI just wanted to give you guys an update:
I bought the Dave Ramsey Total Money Makeover Workbook for my friend. I gave it to under the impression that it was my book and thought she might like to read it. (I actually skimmed through it and thought it was very good for people who are just out of control with spending and debt) So a couple of days later she told me her husband read it and thought it was awesome and that they should start the program and she agreed. Well guess what, I was talking to her last night and she is already fixating on buying more useless crap because now they’ll be out of debt with the help of the book I gave her. Huh?? AHHHHHHH!!!!!! Well as the saying goes “You can lead a horse to water…ParticipantI just wanted to give you guys an update:

About 80%-90% of San Diego water comes from either the Colorado River basin or from Northern California (State Water Project). Due to the drought in the Colorado River basin San Diego had to obtain about 78% of its water from the State Water Project. However, a judicial ruling last year determined that due to impacts on the endangered Delta smelt the current pumping of water from Northern California to Southern California must be dramatically reduced, or possibly cease.

http://voiceofsandiego.org/articles/2007/04/30/news/01water043007.txtDesalination is a possibility for the future, but the cost of the treatment process is still substantially higher than other available options. It will also take time to build the plants, so expect at least five years before a plant can be designed, permitted and constructed. If desalination becomes the only option you can expect that water prices will substantially increase until that technology becomes further refined.
If water use isn’t reduced in the near term then San Diego will be forced to purchase water from other sources, such as Imperial County, that has rights to the limited supply from the Colorado River. However, San Diego will be competing with other communities in Southern California that are in the same water shortage situation. The price of water will go up, the question is by how much. What if the cost to water that grass is $400/month or more?
