Mates,

Water is the big issue, not only in quantity but as well in quality. The
main problem is the fact that the Dudes in control are completely clueless
about such issue.

What do you care JP?
According to you, you get all of your water in the Pyrenees Mountains and
bring it back to La Rochelle.

ULYSSES, Kan. (AP) - In recent weeks, this oil-and-gas town of 6,000 has been
looking into buying water - perhaps $190,000 worth of the stuff.

The Ogallala aquifer, the vast underground pool that feeds faucets across the
Great Plains, is running low, forcing farmers and towns to find other sources of
water and pay dearly for it, too.

``Out here, water is like gold,'' Mayor Ed Wiltse said as he ran his hands over
a chart of the town's faltering wells. ``Without it, we perish.''

The Ogallala aquifer is the world's largest underground water system, irrigating
one-third of the nation's corn crops and providing drinking water to Colorado,
Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas and Wyoming. It
contains enough water to cover the entire United States to a depth of 1 feet.

But because of heavy usage, some water experts have pronounced it one of the
fastest-disappearing aquifers in the world.
