I got mine, Jack.

I am surprised to hear you asking for federal stimulus money. Aren't you a right winger?

If Oregon doesn't need CA money any more we can get water elsewhere. We got sun, rain and the ocean.

Raymond Branxton, a leading proponent of the plan to export water, said recently, “Why wouldn’t we do this? Our state is one of the worst in the entire nation in unemployment and in shortages of state revenue. This extra water, and there is extra, believe me, is like gold or oil. Billions of dollars are at stake. And every single hour we simply watch as over six billion gallons of water goes by, untapped, and empties into the vast Pacific Ocean. I say tap it and tap it now. I am talking with government officials on a regular basis.”

It is estimated that Oregon could supply California with approximately 8 billion gallons of water each day without any deleterious effect on either the environment or shipping. That amount of water could easily end, forever, the shortages that have plagued Southern California for decades. At the same time, jobs and revenue would flow into Oregon in numbers never seen before.

The Chinook don't need money? What's their complaint? How have they suffered?

Wait a sec, are you talking about fish?

Sorry to disappoint you, but as long as we don't have to fill up the SoCal reservoirs, NorCal water levels are just fine. And I hear that SoCal wants to split up with us, so I guess we're in the clear.

At least we still have a salmon industry. Our biggest problem is the water diversions in Oregon on the Klamath.

That's right, I forgot. Los Angeles is in Northern Cali now. "South California" is all that useless desert in the southeast.

Good luck having Girls Gone Wild in Palm Springs without water. LOL.

Until it is refuted, it is hardly nonsense.
