    Wow, that must suck!:(

    I'm glad we don't have water restriction in my city, because no matter how much water we use, it all ends up in the same place anyway, ebcause for some reason, we dont have to pump the water, it's pumped naturally or something.:)

    You should all come to Scotland, we have plenty water.

    In fact, a very funny and politically astute comedian called Mark Thomas made a joke about America coming to invade Scotland for it's water in 50 years or so. Bush would be like:

    "They have nuclear weapons and a history of war and bloodshed and they are Godless people who teach Evolution, we're going in for God and country."

    Alternatively, you can boycott Coke, who use 4 times as much water as is in each can to actually make one....only flush your toilet when you poo and all kinds of other things.

    We have been on 5 for about 2-3 years now. We started on level 1 when i was only little. Now im 18 & they still havn't fixed the water here. Our drinking supply is down to about 14% i think. Not so long ago, It was at 11%.

  • STEVE

    Thats right
    Councils give rebates for water tanks and water saving devices.
    Water tanks are not available or are on order for up to 6 x months
    Can't wash your car or house or driveway
